Peace Is The Way: Resolving Conflicts Through Peace




Whirled Peas Everyone! 

Teach me Something! Did you ever notice how difficult it is to argue with someone who does not care to argue? You can become an instrument of peace in any given moment of your life by deciding that you are not going to use your mind for anything other than peaceful thoughts. This may sound extreme to you when you take into consideration all the difficult people you have to deal with, your financial picture, the illness of a close relative, those rowdy kids in the classroom, the inconsiderate boss you must face,  taxes you owe, outrageous traffic, and on and on. Try taking a breather from your habit of continuously looking for occasions to be non-peaceful. Go to that quiet, serene peaceful place within you that is covered by the outer layers of your material life. It is here that you know what being an instrument of peace means. Here, your emphasis is on giving, rather than receiving, peace.
When you are an instrument of peace, you are not seeking anything, you are a peace provider. You do not seek peace by looking into the lives of others and wishing that they would change so that you could become more peaceful. Rather, you bring your own sense of calm to everyone you encounter. 

Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace.
— The Prayer of St. Francis
