NTRODUCTION
Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way.

HESSALONIANS
3:16
In many parts of the world, Christians seem to be searching for a deeper experience of Jesus’ Presence and Peace. The devotions that follow address that felt need.
I have written from the perspective of Jesus speaking, to help readers feel more personally connected with Him. So the first person singular (I,
Me,
My,
Mine
) always refers to Christ; you
refers to you, the reader. The devotions in this book are meant to be read slowly, preferably in a quiet place—with your Bible open. The Bible is the only infallible, inerrant Word of God, and I endeavor to keep my writings consistent with that unchanging standard. After each daily reading, I have included Scripture references. Words from the Scriptures (some paraphrased, some quoted) are indicated in italics.
Jesus knows each of us intimately, and He meets us right where we are—in the midst of our many needs. May you enjoy His Presence and His Peace in ever-increasing measure.

EFRESH YOURSELF
in the Peace of My Presence. This Peace can be your portion at all times and in all circumstances. Learn to hide in the secret of My Presence, even as you carry out your duties in the world. I am both with you and within you. I go before you to open up the way, and I also walk alongside you. There could never be another companion as devoted as I am.
Because I am your constant Companion, there should be a lightness to your step that is observable to others. Do not be weighed down with problems and unresolved issues, for I am your burden-bearer. In the world you have trials and distress, but don’t let them get you down. I have conquered the world and deprived it of power to harm you. In Me you may have confident Peace.

be of good cheer [take courage;
be confident, certain,
undaunted]! For I have overcome
the world. [I have deprived it of

have conquered it for you.]"

E BLESS YOU
with My grace and Peace. Open your heart and mind to receive all that I have for you. Do not be ashamed of your emptiness. Instead, view it as the optimal condition for being filled with My Peace.
It is easy to touch up your outward appearance, to look as if you have it all together. Your attempts to look good can fool most people. But I see straight through you, into the depths of your being. There is no place for pretense in your
