Jesus self-sacrificial love has won peace for us. We are to practice that quality of love every day and lay down our lives for the sake of others just as Jesus did.
Peace in the church by approaching those we disagree with in love and humility. Peace with the world by making evident our gentleness. Peace in prayer, bringing all our requests to God. Peace through practice.
We long for the Prince of Peace to be ultimately known and for his kingdom to unfold. If we see Jesus for who he is and if we have the peace that he offers, then we can wait by participating in what we've seen and what we've tasted. God is with us in all things.
