Today’s theme for Thankful Thursday is the precious words found in the Bible. Join us at Grace Alone for more TT posts.

One of the things I value the most is peace.  Peace in our hearts, particularly during difficult circumstances, only comes from a relationship with Christ.  Here is one of my favorite verses about peace:  Peace I leave with you, my peace I give you.  I do not give peace to you as the world gives.  Do not let your heart be troubled and do not be afraid.  John 14:27 NIV

And here is another of my favorites- short, sweet and what a promise!  Thanks be to God!  He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.  I Corinthians 15: 57 NIV

I don’t know about you but I am so thankful for victory!  The victory that comes through a relationship with Jesus.  The victory over depression, chronic pain, fear, pity parties- all of that is avalable to us through Christ and for that I am soooo thankful!

Be Blessed, my friends!
