Big PictureSample

Think about the way the human body works. Your heart, your lungs, your brain—everything about your body was designed with a purpose. Each part works together, making sure that your body functions just the way it’s supposed to. If even one part begins to struggle or fail? Well, the rest of the body suffers! 

The same is true in the body of Christ. When even one person—one believer in Jesus—doesn’t pursue peace, everyone else struggles as a result. But, when we all allow God to work in our hearts to make peace a priority, then we begin to show the world the bigger picture of who God is—the picture of peace. 

This week, pray that God will help you make peace a priority.
