Peace that you get by always avoiding conflict is a pseudo peace.

True peace is not acquired by avoiding conflicts but  through conflict resolutions.

Running away from the storm won't give you peace, confronting the power behind the storm or going through the storm is what brings true lasting peace.

If Jesus had avoided conflicts, there would be no Christianity today.

He (Jesus Christ) would have had pseudo peace if he had avoided the conflict of the death on the cross, but all of us would have been damned for it.

So in doing the will of the Father there will be great conflict, in building and rebuilding your life there will be conflict, don't avoid that kind of conflict, that's the one that brings true growth and lasting peace.

God asked Jeremiah "if you have been wearied by men on foot, what will you do with men on horses?"

Don't run. Don't hide unless God commands you to.

And finally, peace is worth fighting for, it is worth dying for.


- Paul Bamikole
