Luke 7:50 - Perfect Peace.
Luke 7:50 (NKJV) Then He said to the woman,
"Your faith has saved you. Go in peace."
COMMENTARY PEARL
During the First World War, on Christmas
Eve, the battlefield was strangely quiet. As the
soft snow fell, the thoughts of the young men
were of home and their families. Softly one lad
began to hum "Silent Night." Others took up the
chorus until the trenches resounded with the
Christmas song. When they finished they were
astonished to hear the song echoing from the trenches
across no-man's-land: In their own tongue the other
soldiers also sang "Silent Night." That night they
were thinking of the Prince of Peace, the Christ
of Christmas.
How different this world would be if we
could unite together around that "Holy Infant so
tender and mild." Earth can be as Heaven with
Christ. Discord can be as peace when Christ is near.
Midnight gloom can be transformed into noonday
brightness when He abides with us.
Full peace will come only when Christ
returns. But until that day we can know His peace in
our hearts and can be messengers of His peace in
the world, as we commit our lives to Him.
Healing and forgiveness in Scripture was
often followed with Jesus instructions to go
in peace. That is what Christ brought at
Christmas - peace - and He is still offering it to
hearts today. [Hope for Each Day by Billy Graham]
