We talk about peace, we pray about peace, but when peace is threatened or challenged we fail to make peace. Jesus didn't say blessed are the peace-talkers or blessed are the peace-prayers, he said "blessed are the peacemakers" (Matt. 5:9).
In this life someone is either a peacemaker or a trouble maker.
You can't be in the middle because Jesus also said "Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does not gather with me scatters." Matt. 12:30 These are very powerful words from our Lord.
Let's be a real peacemaker in every area of our life, with ourselves, within our families, in a committee, in a council in which we seat, locally and internationally. When you work making peace, you work in the territory of God and You are His child.
