Peace

Esther 10:3 "Mordecai.......was great among the Jews and well received by the multitude of his brethren, seeking the good of his people and speaking peace to all his countrymen."



All of us want peace. Peace with God. Peace of mind. Peace is a little foretaste of heaven. Of all God's gifts to believers, peace has proven the most difficult for the enemy to counterfeit. Lust can masquerade as love. Pride can hide in a cloak of humility or generosity. Temporary happiness will often look more appealing than true joy. Then there is peace. You either have it or you don't!



We sing "When peace like a river attendeth my way." How we long to be able to say, 'It is well with my soul!'
