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.

             John 14. 27

(The peace of Christ

is not based on

the absence of conflict

or shifting circumstances,

but on His Presence,

even in

   impossible situations.

When our hearts

    are not troubled,

we approach things

       differently.

The reality of

      do not fear

is "I am with you.")

O LORD,

Help us to not just

        be not afraid,

but help us to

   go forth fearless

          with You

into what You

  have placed before us.

Fearless,

faithful,

fruitful.

Nothing is insignificant

     in Your economy.

All for Your glory

        in this day.
