Take Heart

“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”  John 16:33


In this world we have many problems, and people that try to take away things from us every day.  Our joy, our peace, things that we develop, and it goes on and on. 

I've experienced my developments being taken, and used as if they were someone else's idea, this even happened today.  When this happens, we naturally feel bad about these things. 

But we were told this would happen.  This world can be a beautiful place to live, and a terrible place to live.  But the Lord has told us that these things would happen.  We will go through all sorts of terrible things and pain in this world.  It may not be a peaceful situation, but in Him we can have the 'peace that passes all understanding'.

But the Lord Jesus has overcome this world... He has the victory of it all.  In Him and through Him we can experience His peace, in the midst of overwhelming circumstances. 

Take heart dear friends, He overcame it all!
