Scripture: James 3:18 Peacemakers who sow in peace reap a harvest of righteousness. (NIV)
Nugget: Peace should always be a part of our lives; however, daily we are faced with the challenges that disrupt the peace we often seek to obtain. In these instances, & in many others, we are reminded to stay grounded in the peace that comes from God & in the peace that comes with how we handle the various situations that arise.
Peacemakers are those who plant seeds of peace in order for growth to occur. These seeds lead many to peace, righteousness, God, Jesus, and more. In the challenges we face, we should not only seek peace, but seek opportunities that make us peacemakers as well. One of the best ways to keep peace around is to be at peace ourselves!
Quote: “If in our daily life we can smile, if we can be peaceful and happy, not only we, but everyone will profit from it. This is the most basic kind of peace work.” –Thich Nhat Hanh
