In the early days of Israel the benediction was, "The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace." Numbers 6:26. Those who have traveled through Moslem lands, the lands of the Near and Middle East, tell of everywhere hearing the words, "Salaam aleikum" "Peace be unto thee." What did Jesus say about peace? To His disciples then and in all ages, He said. "Peace I leave with you." John 1427. "These things I have spoken unto you, that In me ye might have peace." John 1633. The peace that brings calm to the soul and, through each individual, to the world is found only in Christ, the Prince of peace. It can be found nowhere else. It is Jesus who brings an end to the discords of life. It is He who brings music to the feast of existence. Do you have that peace? It is yours for the seeking the "peace of Gud. which passeth all understanding," which keeps our "hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." (Philippians 47). That peace is a promise and a foretast of the peace that will reign over all the earth when "the kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever."
