The Service Of Peace


Peace is Shalom --- well-being of mind, heart, and body, individually and communally.
It can exist in the midst of a war-torn world, even in the midst of unresolved problems and increasing human conflicts.
Jesus made that peace by giving his life for his brothers and sisters.
This is no easy peace, but it is everlasting and it comes from God.
Are we willing to give our lives in the service of peace?


--Henri Nouwen
Am I willing to give my life in service of peace?
