Romans 12
Devotional:
Do all that you can to live in peace with everyone. (Romans 12:18)
My grandma used to say, “It takes two to tango,” and she was right. By definition, arguments and fights require two sides. We often like to think of peace the same way, but God tells us the possibility of peace relies on just one person – you. How far will you go for peace? Jesus went all the way to the cross to make peace with our rebellious hearts. Peace is not always easy; sometimes it may even seem impossible, but even in the most contentious situations, it depends on your willingness to work for it. Ask God to give you the strength to live peaceably with others today.

Pray it:
Father, help me to be a peacemaker and to live at peace with others as far as it depends on me.
Father, help me to be a peacemaker and to live at peace with others as far as it depends on me.
