Today is the International Day of Peace.
Now I realize, there will always be wars and rumors of war. We even like to joke about beauty contestants wishing for world peace.
But just imagine what that would be like—a world of peace. If we had no fear of war, think of all the places we could go … all the people we could meet. Towns could be rebuilt, trees could grow—and everyone would be free to step from their front door with little trepidation.
I quite like the thought.
So in honor of the day, let’s take a little time and pray for peace—in our families and communities, in our cities and states, in our countries and continents … the whole world through …
What a beautiful sentiment – I like that thought too!
So true. I'd like to think peace starts from within. If more people were at peace with themselves, we wouldn't have some of the horrific stuff going on at the moment.
Or alternatively, if we don't have the faith for world peace, we could pray for fewer beauty contestants.
You, my friend, are a nut!
Is that the lovely photo? It is indeed a LOVELY one 🙂
Yes, yes it is! 🙂
