INCARNATIONAL PEACE
March 18, 2009
People are always looking for some kind of peace. Interesting is that one of the promises of the good news of Jesus Christ is peace.
While they were still talking about this, Jesus stood among them and said to them, "Peace be with you."
- Luke 24:36 TNIV
into the disciples' gathering. Resurrection news is in the air. They remain, however, confused, uncertain of the future, not knowing what to do with the circumstances they will encounter that day. Sound relevant? Then Jesus speaks what he is: "Peace be with you." His presence brings direction, clarity of task, and encouragement to face whatever the circumstances.
Jesus is incarnational peace. Peace in his flesh, in his presence.
Joyfully,
