Peace

My sister and I were rummaging through some untouched things in the other room this afternoon. I took the time to go through some of the ones I think are still worth keeping. There's this issue of The Greenery from when I was still in grade school and found one of my write-ups.

How could we build peace with God? As we all know, God is our Creator. He is also our Almighty, Merciful, and Forgiving Father. Many people turn away from God. Just imagine our life if everyone's like them, rejecting thEir own Creator. Do you think peace and harmony will be a part of our lives? I don't think so. So, how can we avoid this act? Peace in our minds and hearts is making peace with God. There are many wats for us to be able to thank God.

It would also be great if we will start thanking Him right now. First, we could visit Him in the church and give Him some of our time during masses on Sundays. What about on weekdays? We could just pray to God and thank Him for all the blessing He gave us. Tell Him our problems and He will find a way to solve it.

Second is, God created the earth and all the things that live in it. So what about giving some respect. For nature, we can do our part by taking care of it. People are also part of God's creations so be friendly with them. If you know more ways on building peace with God, it would be great if you could also do it so God will be happy. If we will start building peace with God, we will have unity, kindness, freedom, safety, orderliness, and lots more. Wouldn't life be better that way? So let's start building peace with God NOW!!!
