Romans 12:17-18
Living in Peace: Doing What is Right for Everyone
Verse Of The Day:
"Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everyone. If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone." (Romans 12:17-18)
Imagine someone being unkind to you—your first reaction might be to be unkind back. But Romans 12:17-18 teaches us that instead of repaying wrong with more wrong, we should choose what is right and seek peace with others.
God calls us to be peacemakers, even when others hurt us. That doesn’t mean we let people mistreat us, but it does mean choosing forgiveness, kindness, and self-control over anger or revenge. When we do this, we reflect God’s love and bring His peace into the world.
Let’s commit to living in peace, making choices that honor God, and doing what is right, even when it’s hard. By showing kindness and patience, we help build a world filled with God’s love.
Path of Peace Craft:
Draw or cut out a winding path and write “Live in Peace” on a single-line banner at the top. Along the path, add words like “Kindness,” “Forgiveness,” and “Patience.” Decorate it with peaceful colors to remind yourself to choose what is right.
Time For A Prayer:
Dear God, thank You for teaching us to live in peace and choose kindness over anger. Help us to do what is right, even when it’s hard, and to be peacemakers in our homes and communities. Amen.
Keep spreading peace, Faith Force Peace Keepers! Until our next Divine Dispatch, remember that choosing kindness and doing what is right brings God’s love into the world. Let’s be peacemakers every day!
