Blessed are the Peacemakers

Blessed are the peacemakers,for they
will be called sons of God.
               ( Matthew 5:9 *NIV )


  Now every time I read that verse I think of a magnificent
prayer that hangs on the wall over my computer.  It also
reminds me of the words of our Savior Jesus Christ, for He
said;
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give
you. I do not give to you as the world gives.
Do not let your hearts be troubled and do
not be afraid.                    ( John 14:27 )

    
Therefore I pray that; The peace of God, which
transcends all understanding, will guard your
hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus,
and
make you an instrument of God's Peace as well!

   I will share with you the magnificent prayer
that I mentioned.  It is called the:

                 
Prayer of St. Francis of Assisi

         Lord, make me an instrument of your Peace!
         Where there is hatred -let me sow love,
         Where there is injury-pardon,
         Where there is doubt-faith,
         Where there is despair-hope,
         Where there is darkness-light,
         Where there is sadness-joy.

         O Divine Master, grant that I may not so
         much seek to be consoled-as to console,
         To be understood-as to understand,
         To be loved-as to love,
         For it is in giving-that we receive,
         It is in pardoning-that we are pardoned,
         It is in dying-that we are born to Eternal Life.


To God be The Glory
John G. Camarillo
