A King Is Born ~ the Prince of Peaceಮಾದರಿ

What Is Peace?

The Hebrew meaning of peace in the Bible is to have completeness, soundness and well-being. To break it down even more, when Jesus says he wants us to have peace, he wants us to be complete people. Like a jig-saw puzzle, people can’t look at us and see all God had intended unless we are completed. When we accept the Prince of Peace, meaning when we let go of worry and things that upset us, the door is open for Jesus to come and complete us, to make us sound of spirit and lift our general well-being.

Let’s face it, everything seems to speed up in the lead up to Christmas. Workloads increase, best-made plans for budgets can get crushed under the weight of holiday preparations (and expectations), hours seem to vanish off the clock face, and stress levels can reach unprecedented heights. More than likely, you are feeling weary and burdened, like it’s just all too much.

The good news is that unto us a child is born! Jesus says, “Come to me, all you are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” - Matthew 11:28.

Peace is when you let Jesus give you freedom from stress and worry – it completes you; it makes you sound of spirit and uplifts your health and happiness.
