My peace I give to you.

“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give it to you.” (JN 14: 27)

We have these words in every Mass. Every day, with every Mass, Our Lord reminds us—do not worry, I am with you, I know the many difficult days you will have, so please accept my peace; do not take what the world wants to give you. True peace comes from Our Lord. 

“Christ had to suffer and to rise from the dead, and so enter into his glory.” (Gospel Acclamation)
