Peace

The Greek work for Peace is Irenic
Greek eirēnikos, from eirēnē peace, which means favoring, conducive to, or operating toward peace, moderation, or conciliation.

One of the Fruits of the Spirit is Peace. I love the part of the definition of "operating towards peace." I love this concept of operating towards peace. Everything that we do should be operating towards peace. Every part of our daily life should be trying to achieve peace in the world around us.

Jesus is the Prince of Peace. He is the Prince of Operating towards Peace. Interesting thought isnt it? Every part of who Jesus was during his life here on earth he was the epitome of Peace. He was the epitome of Irenic.

How are you working towards peace? During this busy time of year, don't forget to slow down and try working towards peace.
