Let not your hearts be troubled



John 16

33I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world."


Colossians 3:15

15 And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful.


John 14:27

"Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid."


Ephesians 2:17

"And he came and preached peace to you who were far off and peace to those who were near."

There’s a huge battle in my heart, but I know I can just give in and let go of the fight. I can let the peace of Christ rule, not let my heart be troubled or afraid, and I can take heart because He already conquered it all. Or I can let myself be consumed with fear. Pick one. End of story.

Hold Fast to Christ your strength and peace.

Rest.
