I know I want peace!

 

Have you ever thought seriously of the meaning of that blessing, given to the peacemakers? People are always expecting to get peace in heaven; but you know whatever peace they get there will be ready-made. Whatever making of peace they can be blest for, must be on the earth here: not the taking of arms against, but the building of nests amidst, its “sea of troubles” [like the halcyons]. Difficult enough, you think? Perhaps so, but I do not see that any of us try. We complain of the want of many things—we want votes, we want liberty, we want amusement, we want money. Which of us feels or knows that he wants peace?

—J. Ruskin

I know I want peace! Peace has been my motto, my logo, my slogan for many years now! It is all that matters to me. Not things of this world, money, flesh, material goods. They will never bring peace! God gave us Jesus to follow! We are called to reflect, forgive, imitate, and love like Him! Jesus brings us peace! When we follow Him! When we have great faith! When we turn from all sin, we are promised life eternal in Heaven with Jesus our real peace, but we can have peace here on Earth too, when we follow Jesus, trust in Him, live like Him, love like Him!  Yes, I know I want peace!
