Promise of Peace
Sadly, we live in a world where promise-making is often followed by promise-breaking. Cheap promises are simply one more tool in the toolbox that people use to get their way, gain support or otherwise exercise power. From politics to business, to friends and family, and even, tragically, in the church, promises made and promises broken are all too common. During this season of Lent, on our journey towards Easter Sunday, we will focus on the only One whose promises can be depended upon, regardless of the cost to the promise-maker. "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." – John 14:27
