New Nouwen Meditation: Reflect the Peace of Christ

DAILY MEDITATION | NOVEMBER 23, 2019
Reflect the Peace of Christ
Maybe you should make a prayer room in your house . . . a place where you can go and often return and let God speak to you. . . .

Never forget the words “In this world you will have troubles but be brave: I have overcome the world.” Every time you spend silent time in your prayer room you celebrate Christ’s victory over the world (over death, over the evil one) and allow yourself to taste already now the peace that comes from this victory.

It is so important for the people around you to see that peace of Christ reflected in your eyes, your hands, and your words. There is more power in that than in all your teaching and organizing. That is the truth we need to keep telling each other.
"But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us."

2 CORINTHIANS 4:7 (NIV)
