Good Morning!! Shalom is a Hebrew word that means “peace”,…and it’s also the name of my church. The Israeli people typically great everyone by saying “Shalom”. Even though the nation of Israel rarely has physical peace, the hope for peace never seems far from their lips and hearts. Which makes me ask; could it be that even in the chaos of our life, we can still hope to feel peaceful? Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you.
I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.—John 14:27 (NIV)
The answer is yes! We can know God’s peace no matter what surrounds us. We only need recall the promise that Jesus made to His apostles and us, on the night of His arrest,…that He would leave us with peace.

The answer is yes! We can know God’s peace no matter what surrounds us. We only need recall the promise that Jesus made to His apostles and us, on the night of His arrest,…that He would leave us with peace.
Peace doesn’t depend on what happening around us, …but rather, what is happening inside us.
Sweet Spirit of God, help us to open our hearts to Your peace, so that there is no place for fear and worry, In the name of Jesus, Amen.
