00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:09,799
Speaker 3: Grief's a heavy emotion to process. So take a minute

40
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 3: this day to gather your thoughts than to quiet your spirit.

41
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 3: Accommodate yourself into a comfortable state. Close your eyes, breathe easy.

42
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:34,640
Speaker 3: Now turn your heart and fix your attention to what

43
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 3: God has for you today. Again, we'll be meditating on

44
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:43,040
Speaker 3: John chapter fourteen, verse twenty seven. From the King James version,

45
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 3: it says peace. I leave with you my peace. I

46
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 3: give unto you, not as the world giveth, give ie

47
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 3: unto you. Let not your heart beat troubled, neither let

48
00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 3: it be afraid. Let us take time to adore God

49
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 3: in these moments. God, I worship you, for you are

50
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 3: who you say you are. I praise you for granting

51
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 3: me your unmatched peace, a peace that surpasses all knowledge

52
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 3: and understanding. I praise you for your loving kindness over me. God,

53
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 3: I worship you, for you are always with me. You

54
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 3: never leave me, nor forsake me. I praise you for

55
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 3: your care over me in this time of need. My

56
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,359
Speaker 3: friend's grief is one of, if not the most difficult

57
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:45,640
Speaker 3: emotions to process. Grief can overwhelm the heart, and it

58
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 3: can paralyze the mind with fear. But Jesus can help

59
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 3: you deal with grief. Why because he offers you his peace.

60
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 3: The peace of God is different from what this world

61
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:06,040
Speaker 3: has to offer. Human peace is dependent upon control of circumstances.

62
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 3: It requires everything to be going well in order for

63
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:16,040
Speaker 3: it to be real. That's not so with God. Jesus

64
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:20,920
Speaker 3: offers a peace that will prevail against all odds. It

65
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 3: is tranquility in the middle of the storm, a solid

66
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 3: foundation amidst shifting sands. The peace Christ offers is not

67
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:38,160
Speaker 3: contingent on your control or your understanding, just your acceptance.

68
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 3: His peace is the reassurance that no matter what, God

69
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:51,600
Speaker 3: is in control. Not only is he in control, but

70
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 3: also He has a plan, and not just any plan,

71
00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 3: He has the best plan. Because God is who he is,

72
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:08,760
Speaker 3: his peace reigns supreme. So confess your grief to God

73
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:15,360
Speaker 3: right now, for he is waiting for you. Let us

74
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:19,719
Speaker 3: now thank God for his peace. Thank Him for his

75
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:24,440
Speaker 3: peace that is divine. Thank God that you do not

76
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:30,800
Speaker 3: have to live under fear. Thank Him for peace in

77
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:36,320
Speaker 3: the healing process. Thank Jesus. Then, in the middle of

78
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 3: your grief you have his assurance, and thank him that

79
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 3: you can trust that He will work all things out

80
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:51,479
Speaker 3: for good. God is present and he is listening to you.

81
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:57,200
Speaker 3: He cares for you, and he longs to ease your suffering.

82
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 3: This is your moment to reach out to him. Ask

83
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 3: God to reassure your heart in this difficult time. Ask

84
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:12,760
Speaker 3: Him to grant you his peace that surpasses all understanding,

85
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 3: Peace that is greater than any circumstance or situation. Ask

86
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:23,000
Speaker 3: the Holy Spirit to help you receive this peace and

87
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 3: to trust in his word. Remember, God promised to give

88
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:34,080
Speaker 3: you his peace. God's peace is greater than anything the

89
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 3: world has to offer. It prevails all obstacles and triumphs.

90
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 2: Over all fear.

91
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 3: Have courage, and know that you're not alone. God is

92
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 3: for you and he will help you through this. With

93
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 3: God's peace, when it reigns in our hearts, my friends,

94
00:07:55,960 --> 00:08:00,560
