Here’s a play on words, “to have a piece of God is to know the peace of God” or maybe you have heard this one – “know God, know peace, no God no peace.”
Both are very much true testaments of Jesus. And the word says in John 14:27 that He wants you to have the same inner peace that He has been given by the Father – not the peace that the World gives but that abiding peace with the Father that only He can give.
You don’t need to be afraid of Him, because He loves you.
In Col 3:15 God loves you dearly and has set you apart as His own.
He wants you to be compassionate, kind, humble, gentle and patient. Be tolerant especially if someone has done wrong to you.
We are to forgive as we have been forgiven by Him for all the wrong we have done to Him.
This will let the peace that only Christ can give, control your heart and mind. God calls us to work towards living peaceably in this way.
To know Him is to love Him.
His word gives us understanding of who He is and we can experience His peace that suprasses all understanding when we seek out His word.
In Christ Love, Amen
