John 14:27 - Peace Like No Other.

John 14:27 (NLT) I am leaving you with a 
gift - peace of mind and heart. And the peace I 
give is a gift the world cannot give. So dont 
be troubled or afraid. 

John 14:27 (NIV) 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. 

John 14:27 (TLB) [Jesus said,] I am leaving 
you with a gift - peace of mind and heart! And 
the peace I give isnt fragile like the peace 
the world gives. So dont be troubled or 
afraid.  

COMMENTARY PEARL

   My husband likes to keep the television 
tuned to a news station a few hours each day. He 
watches it before work, during his lunch break at 
home, and in the evenings. Dont get me wrong - 
I do want to stay informed about whats 
going on in the world; I need to know how to pray 
concerning current events. But sometimes the video 
clips of evil and violent acts being played over 
and over get to me. I start to feel unsettled 
and anxious.  
   During those times it helps to remember 
some of Christs final words before His 
crucifixion. In New Testament times, a typical way to say 
goodbye was peace or shalom. To the 
Jews, this meant more than the absence of 
conflict, stress, or war. It implied the blessings of 
wholeness, completeness, health, security, joy, and 
contentment. Peace on the inside, no matter whats 
going on around us.  
   Even though the whole world seems to be 
involved in tension, conflict, and war, we can enjoy 
the special peace only believers can possess. 
The kind that Jesus made possible when He rose 
from the dead, returned to heaven, and sent the 
Holy Spirit to live inside His followers. The 
deep, lasting peace that sustains us through any 
circumstance.  
   The world around us may be in turmoil - 
or worse - but thanks to Jesus we can have 
peace with God, with one another, and within our 
own spirit. What a matchless gift! by Dianne 
Neal Matthews  
   Faith Step: Read Philippians 4:6"9 to 
remind yourself how to experience the peace of God 
that will guard your mind and heart. Then write 
John 14:27 on a card and tape it to your bathroom 
mirror. Each morning read it aloud as you visualize 
Jesus speaking the words to you. [Mornings With
