I apologize for the late post, we both went to Dentist this morning...
For “He who would love life and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips from speaking deceit. Let him turn away from evil and do good; let him seek peace and pursue it.”
I would like to focus this day on the last part, on seek peace, to pursue peace. In order to have peace with god, with mankind we must pursue peace.
Over the weekend so many things transpired in my life and the life of my family. Our peace was limited, our tongues were tested. When an individual is tested things can go one of two ways. I am glad to say that in the end God was glorified. It took a minute to get to that point, a lot of frustration, a lot of terrible tongue, a lot of repentance.
Today all involved, at least the mature at heart know that we must pursue peace with everyone. Thus providing peace with ourselves and most importantly peace with God.
It is very hard not to judge, to not point fingers. But once you pursue peace, take your eyes off the situation and look toward the Father, everything is a lot clearer.
