I LET PEACE BEGIN WITH ME. I AM PEACE, I AM JOY, I AM ONE.
World Peace
I LET PEACE BEGIN WITH ME. I AM PEACE, I AM JOY, I AM ONE.
How can what I say or do affect the lives of others in ways that promote peace? The truth is, everything I do in every moment of the day lays a foundation for peace.
When I perceive that I’ve been wronged but choose to take a higher road, I set a stepping-stone of harmony. When I refrain from speaking careless words, I place another foothold in the pathway of peace.
Every thought, word, and action paves the way and contributes to the wholeness of the world. As I think peace, I am peace. As I express understanding, I open the way for others to experience love in their lives. Person by person, act by act, I contribute to a world where nonviolence is the norm and peace is paramount. I let peace begin with me.
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.—Matthew 5:9

Having turned our attention to the invisible substance, we move upon it with our thoughts and

mid-12c., "freedom from civil disorder," from Anglo-French pes, Old French pais "peace, reconciliation, silence, permission" (11c., Modern French paix), from Latin pacem (nominative pax) "compact, agreement, treaty of peace, tranquility, absence of war" (source of Provençal patz, Spanish paz, Italian pace), from PIE root *pag- "to fasten" (which is the source also of Latin pacisci "to covenant or agree;" see pact), on the notion of "a binding together" by treaty or agreement.
