John 14:27 I am leaving you with a gift -peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift that the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid.
So what is this gift of peace of mind and heart that Jesus is leaving us. Because he also warned us that persecution will come for those who believe and trust in him. How can we have peace and also persecution? This perceived conflict between having peace while also expecting persecution is mostly due to our misunderstanding of what “peace” is.
We believe that peace is the absence of conflict, an exemption from the rage and havoc of war. And to some extent it is. But that’s not all. The peace of mind and heart Jesus is gifting us is not relegated to our physical safety. It is a calm state of a soul assured of it’s salvation through Christ, fearing nothing from God and content with what we have.
So even though we will experience some sort of persecution because of our faith in Christ, our soul can remain calm and fearless because we are not God’s enemy, sin is.
