Peace

2 Corinthians 13:11 

Final Exhortations and Greetings

11 Finally, brothers and sisters, rejoice, set things right, be encouraged, agree with one another, live in peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you.

 

“Become complete and live in peace” with Christ the Savior-

“Peace beyond understanding” ... is not that true peace?

Is not peace a substance ... deep in your awareness?

Will that not bring serenity ... in many a way to please?

 

The world can’t understand it ... it has no part in it.

Strife and disagreements are deep in their existence.

The more intellectually we search for the answers

The more we will stray from it through our own persistence.

 

Peace cannot be earned ... it takes a change of heart.

Since we can’t change ourselves ... it is a gift from far beyond us.

We hang onto our own perception until death does us part

with lives often unfulfilled ... as we see all around us.
