Christ is our peace. ~ Ephesians 2:14 (CEB)
Lord, my experience with your peace is mixed. On the one hand I feel like I am at peace with you. But there are some people -- some of whom claim to be your people -- who do not make me feel very peaceful. These Christians are more annoying than pagans! It's probably at least partially my fault because I want to set them all straight. Please calm my spirit. Transform me into a true person of peace so that I can calmly deal with these people. I believe that it can happen because you have established peace through the cross and modeled the practice of it through your ministry. And you have empowered me with your Holy Spirit. I'm looking forward to the challenge. In the name of the Prince of Peace I pray, Amen.
