God’s peace is not the world’s peace,
it is a true peace versus a fake peace.
The peace of God lives for the covenant,
the peace of the world lives for the transaction.
Peace pretenders grip competition.
Peacekeepers embrace cooperation.
They remain calm in adversity,
resigned to justice with mercy.
Peace pretenders make up opposition.
Peacekeepers are gentle and kind.
They remain humble in hardship,
with good will to their enemies.
Peace pretenders annoy allies.
Peacekeepers accept divergence.
They remain patient in service
soothing hurts and healing wounds.
The peace of God-is graceful and blessed.,
The peace of the world is empty and void,
World’s peace enables trivial triflings.
God’s peace empowers real freedom.
