To be at peace with all people

To be at peace with all people looks nearly impossible. But that is what a Christian should try to do.

Followers of Christ should try to become like Jesus Christ and come to love God and love one another like he loved his heavenly Father and those people around him. There is no way to be at peace with others without loving them.

Being at peace with all is that we are to live in harmony with others, not allowing any oppressive thoughts or emotions to take control of our feelings toward them. In other words, we live in love.

We are to accept one another in love and respect the fact that God is working in different ways in people. Just because it is not what we are used to does not mean it is not of God.

It is expected from lovers of God that they respect the creatures of God, be it plants, animals or human beings. Even if we do not like some, it is up to us to set ourselves over the negative thoughts about others. We have to come to see the good in each person around us. We are to accept them for who they are. If we think they should be different, we always can pray to God that He will teach us and guide us in the way we are to go.
