Such profound truth, such simple words!
John 14:27 “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.” Knowing Christ – it’s something that is so deep that it’s hard to put into words, yet so simple that it can be captured…

Heaven
John 14:2 “If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you?” Do you realize that there is absolutely nothing more certain for the believer than heaven? It’s a place we’ve all heard about, but it’s so difficult to conceptualize. Some people just don’t believe there…
