Scripture: John 16:33 “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” (NIV)
Nugget: Jesus revealed so many things to the disciples; the things that He revealed were for learning & guidance. Also, they were to bring peace. He was reminding them that no matter what, He was still in control & there was nothing that they would face that couldn’t be overcome through Him.
Peace is such a great thing to have, but peace in Jesus—what a blessing. Yes, we’ll face troubles, obstacles, challenges, & more, but peace in Jesus is the way we overcome these things!
Don’t give away your peace to the things & people you face in life—rest in Jesus & know that His peace is everlasting.
Quote: “Of all the things Christ wants for us, loving Him and focusing our attention on Him are the most important.” –Charles Stanley
