April 22: Peace Through the Risen Christ
April 22: Peace Through the Risen Christ
Scripture: John 20:19 (NKJV)
Then, the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and said to them, “Peace be to you.”
Reflection
The disciples, paralyzed by fear, encounter the risen Jesus, who offers peace. His resurrection breaks through our doubts and anxieties, bringing calm to our hearts. No locked door can keep Him out. Rest in the peace of His presence today.
Prayer
Risen Lord, thank You for bringing peace to my fears. Enter my heart today and calm my worries. Let Your resurrection power guide my steps. Amen.
