Matthew 5:9

Matthew 5:9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. We talked a couple of days ago about meek people who were not weak people. So today we are going to talk, not about peaceable people, but peacemakers. A peacemaker is someone who makes peace happen. It takes work and force of character to be a peacemaker. Years ago the Colt firearms company made a pistol that the lawmen out west used. Guess what it was called? You got it, a peacemaker. When a sheriff or a U.S. marshal carried his peacemaker, rowdy men thought twice before stirring up trouble. They were rather careful when the lawman had a peacemaker strapped on. And sometimes we have to stand up and be a peacemaker. Remember, always stand up for what is right. Stand up for peace!
