Peace – A Reflection
Today we spent time with a dear friend
We shared stories
We shared laughter
We shared our mutual awe in the midst of God’s Creation
We also spent time in discussion
Discussion about the state of the world
Discussion about our call as Christ-followers
Our call to be agents and instruments of God’s peace
As I reflected once more on the words of Thomas Merton
It all came together
These words from The New Seeds of Contemplation resonated deep with within my heart
We are not at peace with others because we are not at peace with ourselves, and we are not at peace with ourselves because we are not at peace with God.
May we indeed be at peace with ourselves, with God, and with one another
I
