You won't find it on EBay.

The greatest gift of all "salvation" in a sense has a do not open until death sign on it.
I realize this point could be argued but what I am trying to say is that we will not get the full benefit from this gift until we get to Heaven. With that said I think John 14:27 describes the second greatest gift we could ever receive and it does not come from Lowe's, a car dealership, a jewelry store or the mall. You can not even buy this gift on EBay.  John 14:27 says:

 “I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid.

What could you face today if you truly had a peace of mind and heart? You can not experience true peace without having a relationship with Jesus. Like he says right here it comes from him you can't get it  at Wal*Mart or anywhere online. The cool thing is you can open this gift right now by not running from Jesus anymore.
You can get it just by developing your relationship with him. You will still have troubles in your life, those will not go away in a fallen world but you can still have a peace in those troubles.
