“Keeping peace in a family
requires patience, love, understanding and at least two television sets with
remote controls.”
Peace in any family whether
biological or community involves two coordinates: “proper
attitude and productive, tangible actions resulting from that attitude.”
PEACE demands that we seek to
understand whether we are understood or not.
Peace remembers that it is more
important to get in the first thought than it is to have the last word. Yes, peace requires patience, love and
understanding.
The prayers that we live ON OUR
FEET are just as important as THOSE SAID ON OUR KNEES. Peace has a tangible price “at least two
television sets”…actions that are expressed in our contributing time in acts of
kindness…sometimes with our money…and always with our efforts.
“So faith, by itself, if it has
no works is dead.” James 2:17
