“Peace I leave with you, My
peace I give to you; not as the World gives
do I give to you. Let not your heart be
troubled, neither let it be afraid.”
( John 14:27 )
Oh what peace I now enjoy
it’s all different than before
I use to worry night
and day
But God’s peace
has calmed the storms
Because I’m resting
safe in his arms.

Pat – I often think of the incredible peace that comes from God’s spirit within us – I wonder how others do it – and I know from experience they don’t – their soul suffers. What a gift – what a blessing to know true peace that underscores everything.

Hi Pat,
I’m really enjoying your poems. This one I really liked — starting off with scripture like you did and then wrote a poem how it plays in your life.
And Amen — the only true peace is from within and that only God can give.
This is beautiful. I truly appreciate your God-inspired poetry. It’s a huge blessing.
Patty Ann,
God knows how to put that true peace in our hearts because He is the Almighty and loves us so dearly….. You are doing a marvelous job of expressing God’s truths in poetry….. All of the Psalms are poetry and your poetry is much like that…. Thanks a bunch! 🙂
