Today I had quite the day... mostly good stuff mixed with experiencing broken relationships and broken life around me. As we try to embody the kingdom in the small parts of the world where we find ourselves, I found myself crying out and praying these words tonight...
"Lord God, make me an instrument of your peace."
I believe that peace embodies more than just being calm, or a lack of war, or sensing a degree of wholeness... if it is really shalom, it can only be attained by living within kingdom boundaries... and it seems more Christlike than ripping on people or pointing out sins or being more holy than the sinners... Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
