Lasting Peace

John 14 verses 23-27

Jesus replied, ‘Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them. Anyone who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me. All this I have spoken while still with you. But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. 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.’

On 28th April, President Vladimir Putin announced there would be three-day Russian ceasefire in Ukraine from 8 May. Three days is not a lasting peace – there is only One who can bring a peace that the world cannot give… The Lord Jesus Christ. He can offer such peace because of His death on a cross and resurrection from the grave. Have you found peace in Him yet?
