Fear can paralyze us, causing us to retreat and isolate ourselves, much like the disciples did after Jesus' crucifixion. Yet Jesus enters our fearful spaces, offering His peace not as a mere greeting, but as a transformative gift. This peace leads to purpose as He commissions us, just as He did the disciples, to share His love and hope with others. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, we are equipped to move beyond our fears and embrace God's mission for our lives wherever He has placed us.
