PSALM 34:14 (CEB)
Turn away from evil! Do good!
Seek peace and go after it!
1 CORINTHIANS 7:15 (CEB)
God has called you to peace.
SUMMARY SENTENCE
God has called us to pursue peace.
PRAYER
Powerful God, I'm grateful that the creation of peace is important to you. Of course, I don't seem to be able to prioritize peace in the way that you do. I continue to fall back on all the old arguments for prioritizing power. Show me how to humbly follow in the footsteps of the Prince of Peace -- even if it means giving up all my own power and control. I'm going to pursue peace for everyone in my sphere of influence. Amen.
Since 2015, I've been modeling one way of using the MORAVIAN DAILY TEXTS* to maintain a daily conversation with God.
