My peace I give you. How could someone who knew they were about to be betrayed and crucified speak such words to His disciplesand to us? Its because Jesus was totally, utterly surrendered to His Father. And in the midst of His last night on earth, He says that we, too, can have such peace. This supernatural, unearned gift is ours if we trust the Father, trust in Christ, and if we completely surrender to Him.
