TEXT: Romans
12:14-21
TOPIC: LIVE
IN PEACE WITH EVERYONE
Peace, which is the
absence of conflict, is very scare in the world today. This scarcity begins
from within - people do not have peace of themselves as a result of not
attaining certain heights.
This develops to low
self-esteem, as they begin to hate themselves. From this micro level, things
escalate to a global level where a nation goes to war with another nation.
For example, Russia
against Ukraine, Palestine/Hamas against Israel and so on.
No matter what you do,
some people are just difficult to relate with. Is Paul being realistic? Yes, he
is! In fact, he suggests steps to do that: bless those who persecute you, do
not curse them.
While you may not be able
to control how others see and respond to you, you can control how you react to
them. Hebrews 12:14a says: “Make every effort to live in peace with all men.”
QUESTION: Who
are struggling to live in peace with?
PRAYER: Let
the peace of God flow through me to others, O God, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
Remain
Blessed
