To be pacifistic at Heart

“Sometimes ones did not even comprehend the conflict within oneself and with others.”

When the soul has come to the place where it can no longer can take it, it snaps.
There are many souls who pride themselves that they can "take it."

They spend their entire lives convincing themselves and others they are tough.

Their insides have become hardened.

They have no peace, but they proclaim great peace with themselves and with others.

That’s because they must prove it, and if they say they have peace, that’s all the proof they need. They become very angry if you question their inner peace. They are the children of experts.

They were brought up by the new thoughts coming from the new storytellers.

But others, whose hearts have not become hardened but merely overcome, become "mentally ill" and have to be put away.

Perhaps their mental illness leads them to suicide or murder. There are other forms losing control takes, but none of them are pretty to look at.
"We extend our hand towards peace.

Our people are committed to peace. We know that peace entails painful compromise for both sides." Ariel Sharon
And if we don’t have peace with God, we will all the more lack His wisdom to deal with other people.

So when we wonder why we don’t have peace and harmony at home, at work, or at church, we have to look first and foremost into our relationship with God. Do we have peace and harmony with God?
All believers are God's children born by the Holy Spirit.

God would be pleased if His children can live in harmony.

On the other hand, discord among His children will bring grief to God.

If brothers and sisters can live in harmony and love, God will regard this as good and beautiful, and will bestow upon us the greatest blessings. “How good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in unity!” (Ps 133:1-3)
Therefore, we should all the more be kind to others and be an example to them of what being God’s children mean.

It is to have His love and His compassion, His patience and His way of resolving issues; that is, to have His virtues.

When we have peace with God and understand His will for us, we also understand His heart for the lost souls in this world. If we don’t have God’s peace with men, it is difficult to approach them as we are resentful or apathetic
If we can practice these principles of peace, not only can we achieve harmony and peace with everyone, we will all the more be pleasing to God and be blessed by Him abundantly.
Peace and Safety will come about, when ones will have peace within all of God's people.
God is the only Judge of who will be part of his Church and Family.
