Peace which the world cannot give

I will no longer speak much with you, for the ruler of the world is coming. He has no power over me, but the world must know that I love the Father and that I do just as the Father has commanded me. Suffering and pain remain. Jesus has confidence that, despite great pain and suffering, simply trusting in and following the will of His Heavenly Father will bring about the ultimate good. Whichever the case may be, Jesus is waiting for you to ask Him for the peace that surpasses understanding.

Do not let anything trouble your hearts. Do not fear. Peace I leave to you, my peace I give to you; not as the world giveth, I give to you; be not your heart afraid, nor dread it [be not your heart troubled, neither dread it].

This repeats the statement Jesus used to start this message John , immediately after predicting Peter's cowardice John I have said these things to you while still with you; but the Paraclete, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything and remind you of all I have said to you.

Peace I bequeath to you, my own peace I give you, a peace which the world cannot give, this is my gift to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid. You heard me say: I am going away and shall return. If you loved me you would be glad that I am going to the Father, for the Father is greater than I.
