“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
Happy New Year!
How many times have you heard or said these words over the past few weeks? A greeting intended to share joy and hope as we embark on yet another year.
Last month, we celebrated Christmas, the birth of Christ. The birth of our Savior, who we call Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Yet many are not at peace. Are you?
I wish you Shalom.
What does Shalom mean? It means peace. And a host of other words related to peace - harmony, wholeness, rest, welfare, health, tranquility, completeness and prosperity.

“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you.
