Our Inheritance is Peace

After Floyd passed away, it took about 2 years to settle everything legally.  He didn't have a lot, so it seemed pretty straight forward.  But there were a lot of hoops to jump through.  The whole process got me thinking a lot about wills - leaving things to people, deciding what to do with things we have, etc.

One day I realized that Jesus left a will for us.  He "willed" us His peace.  "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you."  John 14:27

In a world that seems filled with constant turmoil.....in the problems in our lives.....in the grief of losing loved ones - what a precious treasure it is to have the peace that Jesus left for us.  I'm so grateful for His peace.

In the joy of this December when we celebrate His coming - I'm thankful for the peace He brought to us.  I pray that each one reading this will receive it afresh in their life too.
