The Beatitude (You Are Blessed, vs. 9)
Blessed Are The Peace Maker (Beatitudes #7) (Photo credit: loswl)
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God (Matthew 5: 9).
You’re blessed when you can show people how to cooperate instead of compete or fight. That’s when you discover who you really are, and your place in God’s family (The Message).
It is not important to be the first person at the food table. There’s plenty for everyone. Nor, is it important to “always be right.” It’s good to hear ideas from others. Another person may have a better idea, a more efficient and effective idea to increase life’s bounty and to improve life’s comfort.
Cooperation will ensure that all benefit, not just a few. Cooperation assures that we all benefit from God’s earthly blessings.
Are you a peacemaker, if so, lead the way? We are counting on you.

I feel sharing one's faith journey and reviewing biblical and spiritual stories offer credible and viable examples of great leaders who transformed our world.
