Peace That Is Given, Not Earned
Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
Reflection
Jesus gave His peace the way you hand someone a gift, not the way a wage is paid. You cannot work your way into calm, and He never asked you to. The peace He gives does not depend on your situation improving, which is exactly why it can hold you while nothing has changed.
Prayer
Father, I have been trying to settle myself by thinking harder and doing more. Thank You that Your peace is given, not earned. Let me receive it as a gift today and stop carrying what You have offered to hold. In Jesus' name, Amen.
