God, thank you for raising Jesus from the dead; for He is in the world today, and will come in to speak peace to my soul when I am afraid.

"When it was evening on that day, the first day of the week, and the doors were locked where the disciples were for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said, 'Peace be with you.'" ~John 20:19 (NRSV)
