The Language of Peace

Peace is a concept of societal friendship and harmony in the absence of hostility and violence. In a social sense, peace is commonly used to mean a lack of conflict (such as war) and freedom from fear of violence between competing individuals or groups. All Through history, leaders have used peace-making and diplomacy to establish a certain type of behavioural restraint that has resulted in the establishment of regional peace or economic growth through various forms of agreements or peace treaties. Such behavioural restraint has often resulted in the reduction of conflicts, greater economic interactivity, and consequently substantial prosperity. As the world moves on, the message of Christ and other peaceful religious leaders should be a determining factor in how we resolve our differences. All men should do their utmost best to live in peace and tranquillity. This helps development in all areas of our lives. Nations and nationals can excel with recourse to violence through incitement by frustrated persons wishing to bring destruction to their fellow human beings. May the language of peace help to bring hope and peace to the world, dwelling on "the peace of God which passes all our understanding." Our words have the power to impact lives and bring peace, joy and to repair broken and troubled lives. In this land of the living, let us strive daily to be each other's keeper.
