PEACE:
INNER

The world talks of peace, and by peace it means the absence of war. What it overlooks is that there is another meaning of the word, namely, tranquillity of heart, and without that kind of peace the peace of the world will continue to be but an unattainable dream. As long as peace between nations continues to depend upon the shifting moods of choleric old men filled with hatred and frustration at their approaching dissolution, and who are ready to pull the world down with them into the bottomless pit, just that long will there be no peace among nations.…

True peace is a gift of God and today it is found only in the minds of innocent children and in the hearts of trustful Christians.

John 14:27; Romans 5:1; Philippians 4:6–7; Colossians 3:15
