The Spiritual Fruit of Peace is Cultivated as Christians Mature
Jesus could sleep through a storm, totally trusting in God. Peace is a calm state of mind, resting in God's care, not upset by the chaos of the world. Jesus acknowledged that the world offers no real peace because it is ruled by the god of this world, Satan. Only an intimate relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ can bring real peace.
