Mat 5:9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
How few there are today who are willing to be peacemakers. The reason? Because it costs us. A peacemaker is one who gives up their personal rights in order to obtain peace. They don’t demand their own way. I am not talking about compromising principles, but rather one who is willing to forgo their personal rights for the sake of maintaining peace. What a blessing they are in the home, on the job or in the church. These truly can be called the children of God in their unselfishness.
