"Matthew 5:9 "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.
It is sometimes hard to understand how other people think and act, and even though we do not want it to impact on us, it still does. There are just some people who are peace breakers and they do it without any effort or thought, it is almost as if they were born to it. We need to be at peace within ourselves and with others to actually be at peace with God, and when that peace is disturbed we need to restore that peace.
With those that are peace breakers, when you need to restore peace it will always be on their terms and you will always be the one that feels guilty, even though you are not.
The tools of peace breakers are manipulation, coercion, authority, blackmail, threat, and these are used by them to gain what they need, and we usually give in to avoid conflict and to maintain peace on their terms. The result of this is that we often feel betrayed; abused and on top of it all feel it is out fault and not theirs.
It appears we give them the right and authority to control our peace at the cost of our own peace. The tragedy is that most often those that are peace breakers are sometimes those that we love the most.
We all need to take a step back and ask ourselves how manipulative are we to get what we want at the expense of those we love, often we do not realise how abusive it really is, because we have grown accustomed to it.
Be encouraged today to be a peace maker rather than a peace breaker.
David."
Point to ponder: We are called to be peace makers.
Question to consider: Do you accept peace at any cost?
