John 14:27

"Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid."

Jesus is such a good man. The words He spoke made so much sense back then, and even more today. It seems as though the earth and it's people have been crying and searching for peace since the beginning. The peace He left on the earth is the peace that the human race really needed then and needs (more than ever) now. It's not as the world gives peace: the world gives peace and security via cash, job security, a few properties, prettiness, people liking you, et-cetera. He left the kind of peace that lasts. The kind of peace that no earthquake, economic crash, bad choices or people-leaving-you-alone can take away. He left the kind of inner peace that, when all else falls away, leaves the human heart and soul solid as a rock. He gives peace through comfort, company, support, friendship, lordship, relationship and love. He looks after you and says that your times and heart are in the palm of His Hand every moment of every day of your life.

Don't choose the fake peace over the legitimate peace. Go after the dreams in your heart but remember the only peace that lasts, the only peace that is stable and eternal is the peace that Jesus Christ left with humanity.
