I’ve been
dwelling on the Beatitudes (like you do) in particular “Blessed are the Peacemakers…….”.
I LOVE the Peacemakers. Those whom Jesus calls “the children of God”.
Sometimes we
all have an issue with a statement voiced or expressed, but the Peacemakers express
their disagreement - not by hurling harsh words and angry rhetoric - but by
gently pointing out their perceptions of it, seeking to bring an
understanding of another’s view, and if
all else fails, at least agree to disagree.
Note - at the hospital yesterday I introduced myself as a volunteer chaplain and the patient either didn't hear, or understand, so his son shouted "she's a preacher ,Dad". So here I am being a preacher.
