Let There Be Peace On Earth

Walking through the snow this morning the air was crisp and pure.  There was serenity about me as the snow frost glistened on each pine needle.  We hear the phrase and even a song “Let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me.”  It is  so true, it has to start with us.  Ephesians 4:31 says ” Let all bitterness and wrath, and anger, and clamour and evil speaking be put away from you, with all  malice.”  Then  the scripture  goes on to  say “Be ye kind to  one another,  tender-hearted, forgiving one another, even  as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.”  There can be peace, but it does have to start right in our heart.  We have to be kind, tenderhearted & forgiving. It is  a big order but as Christians we must try our very best to take on the nature of Christ let serenity surround you,like the frost on the pine needles.  Be immersed in the  Love of Jesus this Christmas and forever.  He should be our  example.  What would Jesus Do?
