Each of us in our different religions and traditions have different ways of dealing with the pain of the past, and I think it is important to remember and respect these different paths...
“Sarah Talcott Blair”
This could be the time for people of all faiths to move beyond ancient hostilities and suspicions and to discover the untapped potential of cooperation.
“Bishop Bill Swing”
The important thing is not to live for peace work but to live for God. That is after all, obviously, the vocation for peace work, where action is the prayer.
“Heidi Rautionmaa”
Teach this triple truth to all: A generous heart, kind speech, and a life of service and compassion are the things which renew humanity.
“Buddha”
[Creator], you offer peace as a gift
and peace as a responsibility...
Give us the grace to reach out for peace,
to have attitudes of peace,
that our words may be words of peace,
that our works may be works of peace.
Then may we build the peace that we and our nations need.
“Monseñor Pedro Rubiano Sáenz, Columbia
A lot of littles make a much.
“Reverend Doctor Dale Turner”
A just peace includes not only civil and political rights – it must encompass
economic security and opportunity. For true peace is not just freedom from fear, but freedom from want.
“President Barack Obama”
It is my fervent wish that every one of us can become aware of the interconnectedness of all existence, and that we might each pause enough to experience the miracle of consciousness. In this experience of and in this awareness of our inter-connectedness, we might discover that there is no space at all for envy, hatred or thought of revenge. Only for Love.
“George Leonard”
Faith is the essential part of relationship or truth in God. Without Faith we cannot please God. Hebrew 11:6. We have to believe in him, and believe him. Both Faith and belief are generally the same people that live by Faith are followers of Jesus Christ, called believers (Act 5:14). Hebrew 1:1 states, Now Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen, The source of Faith; is that by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; It is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast,(Ephesians 2:8). What can I do to get enough Faith? If you can believe, all things are possible. Ask, and it shall be given to you; seek, and you will find, knock, and it will be opened unto you. Faith is dead, without your works in God; no belief in God will not motivate you in Jesus Christ. Faith in God is living for Christ, and that motivates your action because you love doing for Christ, being fruitful, worthy of repentance, turning away from Sin. It’s all about Faith in God our Father and willing to turn in a different way of thinking.
“Elder Melvin Bates”
