The apostle Paul says Jesus himself is our peace. Jesus removed all the things that separate humanity from one another and from God and now offers his peace to others as a gift. Jesus’ followers are called to receive, keep, and cultivate this gift of peace, which requires humility, gentleness, patience, and love.
Read:
Ephesians 2:11-15, Ephesians 4:1-3, Ephesians 4:29-32
Reflect:
According to this passage, how did Jesus make peace between two sharply divided people groups (Jews and Gentiles), and why did he do it (see verse 2:16)?
Do you feel alienated from anyone in your life? Do you want to enjoy peace with this person again? Why or why not? Consider what Jesus did to make peace. What questions and emotions surface as you reflect on this?
Review Ephesians 4:1-3 carefully. How do you think humility, gentleness, patience, and love help to maintain the unity Jesus made for his followers? What happens when one of these virtues is missing? You can’t make choices for others, but what is one practical decision you can make today to cultivate peace?
Review Ephesians 4:29-32 closely. How has Jesus forgiven you? Who needs your forgiveness?
