What a tumultuous era this is - marked by international tension and, for many, the loss of dearly loved neighbors, friends, and family.
In this time of strife, many seek for security through multi-billion dollar spying and weapons programs, as well as authoritarian leaders.
But men are not good at establishing and maintaining peace.
Quite the opposite.
There is One who is named the Prince of Peace.
If we have felt joy or comfort in this time of trouble, we know that its source is the Spirit of God.
By turning to Jesus Christ, we can realize his promise:
"Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you; not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." - John 14:27
