PEACE FOR THE HOLIDAYS AND ALWAYS!
Peace
“The first fruit of
our justification is peace with
God. To the ancient
Jew peace was a precious, but elusive commodity. The present- day turmoil in
the Middle- East seems like a replay….
The Jew longed for peace. He yearned for the day when swords
would be beaten into plowshares. He waited for the era when the Prince of Peace
would come to end the incessant hostilities. So important to the Jew was his
quest for peace that the very word peace became a daily greeting. Where
we say “hello” or “good by,” The Jew said simply, “Shalom.” (R.C.Sproul)
In other words, May you find peace with God this Christmas season! Smile and think!!!
