Terrence, thank you for the wish of peace. Fortunately, I already have that peace. When I hit the grave, that peace will be magnified beyond description for I shall see Jesus face to face.
John 14:27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
John 16:33 "I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world."
Rom 5:1,2 Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God.
Rom 8:6,7 The mind of sinful man is death, but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace; the sinful mind is hostile to God. It does not submit to God's law, nor can it do so.
Rom 14:17 For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit,
Rom 15:33 The God of peace be with you all. Amen.
Terrence, this is peace and it only comes from God. Some find it, some don't. I pray you find it in Jesus Christ.
Jesus loves you, He died for you and me, sinners that we are, He died for all. A love and peace that passes the understanding of man. No one can reason this out. It is God's gift by faith in Him.
