ETERNAL PEACE IS COMING

“Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you.  Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.  Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you.  If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I.  And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe.”

John 14:27-29 KJV

Jesus left us His peace but as long as we are in this world we will have problems and heartaches.  However, we can still have His peace in the midst of all the violence and wars.  One glorious day, Jesus is coming back for us and there will be no more wars, hatred or violence.  What a wonderful day that is going to be!

Thomas A. Dorsey wrote a beautiful inspiring hymn “Peace in The Valley”.  “I am tired and weary but I must toil on Till the Lord come to call me away Where the morning is bright and the Lamb is the light And the night is fair as the day.”  Jesus left us His peace but one day we will have everlasting peace in Heaven.

Think about it, there will be no more murders, rapes, hatred or anything else that hurts Jesus and breaks His heart.  Not only will we be with Jesus for all eternity, we will also be with our loved ones who are already in Heaven.  What a reunion that is going to be when we are reunited with our loved ones.

If you are going through the valley of discouragement and heartache, allow Jesus to pick you up in His loving arms and carry you until the pain goes away.  He loves you so much He died on the cross for you.  What a Saviour!  What a Friend, this Jesus of Nazareth!  O how I love Jesus.  He is my Joy.
