ABANDONING WAR FOR PEACE: A SCRIPTURAL PERSPECTIVE
Remember and be encouraged by the blessed scriptures:
“And let the peace that comes from Christ rule…your hearts.
For as members of one body, you are called to live in peace…”
Likewise, in thanksgiving prayer, also be forever inspired
In knowing “God blesses those who…[labor]...for peace,
For they will be called the…[blessed]...children of God.”

Scriptural life for God’s glory!
We, Christians, are called for it by His victory.
Let’s shine with good works* since we’re saved by His Gospel story…
...To follow Him Who leads us from attacks of worldliness’ misery.
Scriptural life thru God’s sanctification!
We, believers, are set for it along our conversion.
Let’s stay in His will which is characterized by blessed perfection…
...To abide in Him Who purifies us midst sins’ corruption.
*Matthew 5:16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

Our heart is to be our prize
hold it close so not to harm
make sure nothing gets close
treat it as your holy arm
Fill your heart with God himself
for He is your one true guard
be sure you listen to His voice
always close following on hard
Be always to read and study
the only inerrant word divine
it will keep on the straight way
sitting receiving from the perfect vine
This is indeed true life satisfaction
being filled continuously by God's truth
God alone is man's real nourishment
providing what makes eternal youth
So guard your heart always
first and foremost always before
let nothing come before your Lord
so at last you'll go through heavens door
(Guard your heart above all else, for it is the source of life.) (Proverbs 4:23)
