Previous Daily Devotional About God's gift of peace John 14:27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. In the hour of your darkest distress, God will give you His most splendid and most gracious gifts of peace. We do not know how these things work. We do not know how God gives us peace when peace is not humanly possible. Yet, we remain faithful to Christ, for we know that in every circumstance, no matter how troubling, the Spirit of God strengthens and empowers us to always do the will of God. It is Christ's greatest victory and Satan's greatest defeat when you remain true to the calling of God in spite of great suffering. It is Christ's greatest glory to see you, in private agonies only He can understand, remain in Him. In our world of ego and fame, we might want the world to know how much we suffer. However, for Christ, just your act of quiet and humble obedience in trials and afflictions is the greatest work of all. Standing firm against afflictions is looked upon by Christ as the greatest of offerings and will surely bring you His greatest of rewards. |
