“Be at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors, and let every new year find you a better man.” – Benjamin Franklin

We are promised a blessing when we pursue peace which is mentioned in Psalms 133:1;3 (NCV).  “It is good and pleasant when God’s people live together in peace! …There the Lord gives his blessing of life forever.”

Last year, we began by identifying the key to Unity is love.  We learned the importance to 1) love God, 2) love ourselves, and finally 3) love our neighbors.

As we start this New Year, my prayer is that we daily strive to be a better person in every aspect of our lives while we aim for harmony.  Let’s continue on the Love walk by getting dressed in compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience.  Bear with each other and forgive one another... And remember that overall these virtues to put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity (Colossians 3:12-14).

Happy New Year!

Thank you for your time. Be Blessed… LR Maddox
