Matthew 5:9...Peacemakers...

"Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called the children of God.”

The world as we know it today seems determined to stir up trouble at every corner. Even creating the opportunity at times for the sake of causing trouble. There is conflict all around, even between friends. Satan loves to use conflict and division to separate us from each other and from the love of God. If we give into hate or anger then we are opening the door to trouble. Discourse and strife are not what we seek, instead these are the things we seek to remove as we share the love of Christ through our words, actions and charity. We should not be the cause of trouble but rather the makers of peace. Pray that God’s peace go before you and that your words might bring comfort to those around you.

Blessings,
