And he will
be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of
Peace. (Isaiah 9:6)
Many of us are familiar with that song.
Longing for peace on earth. Realizing it may have to begin with ourselves. To
hold our tongue, to forgive - even when the situation surely merits it. How
hard it can be for us! How do we even begin to create a more peaceful
atmosphere? Well ...
In the beginning was the Word, and the
Word was with God, and the Word was God. (John 1:1)
There He is. From the very beginning.
Our Prince of Peace. So it only stands to reason that our source for having
peace, and spreading peace, will come from the Prince Himself. (I am the
vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear
much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. - John 15:5)
So, are you seeking peace this
Christmas season? For you. Family. Friends. I know where you can start. Grab a
coffee or a cocoa and sit a few minutes at the Prince's feet. Sit and sip and
ask for enlightenment on how to bring His peace into the world around you. Give
Him those few moments of time it takes to enjoy that one cup. And see if He
doesn't just fill you up with nudges of peaceful thoughts, words, and deeds!
Yes. Let there be peace on earth. And
let it begin with ... Me.
