23The fear of the Lord leads to life; then one rests content, untouched by trouble.–Proverbs 19
“I [Jesus]have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33)
- You may have troubles in this life.
- People may reject you or persecute you.
- You may even suffer for the cause of Christ.
- But we rest content because we follow Jesus.
- He has overcome the world and has brought peace.
- I have peace with God. This brings contentment to my rest.
- The Gospel of Jesus brings hope for peace with others, as well.–JMB
