God wants to give the inner life an indestructible harmony which is to work outwardly in powerful melodies of love. This is the strength for activity which has its source in the energy of inner concentration.

Peace is in opposition to fear. Peace is the unity of divine life, and as such it overcomes fear of the disintegration of death. Only perfect life has no end. A short period is appointed for all that is mortal and all the efforts of mortals. Only the peace of God and the kingdom of His Prince of Peace, who rose from the dead, know no end. The work of man must yield to the work of God. Where His lordship extends, peace knows no end.
