GOODBYES AND PEACE

“Goodbyes and Peace”

 

Goodbyes are difficult

Goodbyes always

Cause someone pain

 

Goodbyes occur

For many reasons

A move, a death, a broken relationship

 

But as Jesus

Was leaving this world

Jesus said

I leave my peace

With you

 

It is the kind of peace

That is

Not the peace from this world

But a peace

In spite of this world

 

A peace that says

In every situation

I am with you

To trust God

And know

God will bring you safely home

 

God’s peace

Is a victory

Over the darkness of sin

In this world

 

It is a victory over

The coldness, the indifference, the selfishness,

The ingratitude, the luke warmness

And rejection of this world

 

So please know

That whatever you are facing

In this world

 

And if you

Are facing

A goodbye for any reason

I wish you peace

 

GOD’S PEACE

“ALL this I have spoken while still with you-but the COUNSELOR the Holy Spirit

Whom the Father will send in my name-will TEACH YOU all things

And will remind you of everything I have said to you:

 

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 14:25-27
