Know Jesus... Know Peace
We've all heard... Love not Hate!... Peace not War! Are those just sayings; or is Peace possible? There never will be "World Peace"... until our Saviour comes again. But, why not be "the Peace" in your inner circle?!
It takes 2 to have a war... One act of "love" can end it... " Hatred stirs up strife, But love covers all sins." (Proverbs 10:12) We can all think of someone we need to "mend the fence" with. Imagine, there's this HUGE fence you've built between you. Some have done more of the "building" than others! The "fence" has been damaged; but not beyond repair... you can each begin to "mend" your side. In the beginning the "other" side won't even know your working on it! It all begins in your own heart. Forgiving the "damaging hurt" is the hardest part of all! But, then you can begin the mending. You may end up doing much of the mending yourself! Keep on going!
Today happens to be "National Honesty Day". Keeping with the day; be Honest about your true hatred! Don't just try to cover it up. "Whoever hides hatred has lying lips, And whoever spreads slander is a fool." ( Prov. 10:18) As you finish mending the fence you will see the other person; hopefully, in a new light. Even if they refuse to accept your offering of Peace; you will have a Peace within yourself. So, no matter what! You will have conquered and WON the War!! "Let all bitterness, wrath, anger,clamor,and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice." (Ephesians 4:31) Maybe, just maybe... we can all bring a little Peace to this hate filled world... tell HE comes, again!!
In HIS Peace,

No Jesus... No Peace!!!
