If we want the peace of God, we have to let go of what blocks our awareness of God’s peace. His peace is always with us. But when we judge and insist that we are a separate identity, we cannot know God’s peace. Where there is separation there is conflict, and conflict is the opposite of peace. The world of form is a world of conflicting images. If we want to experience the peace of God, we need to become aware of our thoughts and beliefs that make conflict and separation seem real to us.
When we make the dedication to accept God’s peace, we open the door to being shown the thoughts and beliefs that interfere with God’s peace. When we experience conflict in our world experience, we are being giving an opportunity to release the conflict. That is why the practice of bringing all our fear thoughts, our sad thoughts, our guilty thoughts, to the Holy Spirit is the way to open the door to the full experience of God’s peace.
The appearance of conflict in our life then becomes a blessing when we use it as a wake up call to bring it to the Holy Spirit with willingness to let Him show us His way of seeing the situation. Every situation then becomes a stepping stone toward peace.
