Peacemakers

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God. This beatitude is built on all the others. In order to be a peacemaker you have to be poor in spirit, you have to mourn over your sin and be meek so that you’re not emotionally reactive. You need to hunger and thirst for righteousness. You need to be full of mercy and your heart has to be pure so that your motives are sincere. When you possess these attitudes you can be a peacemaker. As far as it depends upon you, live at peace with everyone.
