Father is greater than I. I have told you this now before it takes place, so that when it does happen you may believe. There is
very little left for me to tell you, for the prince of this world is at hand, although there is nothing in me that he can claim. But see, the world must know
that I love the Father, and that I do what the Father has taught me to do. Come now, let us go.
Reflection:
Peace is the greatest indicator of God’s presence. For our God is
a God of order and not of chaos. Thus all the elements align and work
in perfect tandem when God is around. So Jesus left His peace to His disciples
as the abiding indicator of His presence in their lives. This peace does not mean
absence of disturbances and chaos happening around. Rather, it is an
internal sense of peace that is not dislodged when things don’t go well from
the outside. It is a steady and firm assurance that at the end of it all, even when
things are rough, difficult and sometimes painful, all will be well because of Jesus.
