Episode Synopsis

“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 14:27We can’t find inner peace in this world but anxiety, worry, and fear. Peace is a wonderful blessing; it istranquility and quietness of the soul amid trouble. Only in Jesus, this true inner peace could be found. He assured His disciples of His peace despite the persecution and trials they would go through.  Having Christ’s peace does not eliminate life’s trouble, financial difficulty, work, family, or school problems, but it will not overtake you. With the power of Christ's peace, fear and worry will not dominate you. When you go through life's problems, ask the Lord to fill and take hold of your heart and mind with His peace. Make it a habit to pray with thanksgiving so that when you become a peaceful person, no trouble can take hold of you. During the pandemic, my wife's time to give birth has arrived. She woke me up very early on August 20, 2020, for water had already come out. It was a challenging moment, but we were prepared, mainly because God's peace takes hold of us—so fear and worry cannot dominate us. What situation are you currently struggling with? Is your heart troubled and bothered? Ask God for his peace to take hold of you. Make surrendering all your worries and concern a habit and become a peaceful person in Christ. May Christ’s peace take hold of your hearts amid the problems you are going through. Amen.
