“It is to one’s honor to avoid strife, but every fool is quick to quarrel.” (Prov. 20:3) We must put an end, wherever possible, to stop quarreling and fighting! Because it’s not pleasing to God who says, “Repay no one evil for evil. If it is possible, as much as depends on you, LIVE PEACEABLY WITH ALL MEN.” (Rom. 12:17-18) Peace is too precious, “Blessed are the peacemakers, For they shall be called sons of God.” (Matt. 5:9) Peacemaking must also take place within us as we bring all the aspects of our existence into harmony with our spiritual activities and resolve all inner conflicts and contradictions, especially in relation to our seeking INTIMACY WITH GOD. A righteous person will do their best to end conflict and strife. Love and unity are godly and profitable for all. Are you a peacemaker? Do you hate quarrels, strife, and trouble? Do you love quietness, peace, and harmony? Let’s, with God’s help, end every conflict we can.
