Peace be unto you

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, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.
John 20:19

After Jesus' crucifixion, the Jews decided to tackle His disciples, it wasn't as though they left them free while He was alive, but they did it with caution cos of His presence.
Jesus must have know they were afraid, which was probably why He decided to visit them and He told "peace be unto you"

Is there any situation in our lives that is making us live in fear, Jesus is saying to us today "Peace be unto you" and not only that, in vs 22, He breathed  unto them and said "Receive the Holy Spirit". He has sent His spirit not only to teach and direct us but also to comfort us.
Cece winans "comforter" song from the album "purified" best describes who the Holy Spirit is to us.
He's our life changer and also a peace giver.

When the God of peace is there for us, who do we have to fear..
Peace be unto you this day and forever more. Shalom!
