The peace of God is unity in his creative Spirit, who wants to bring a new peace and unity to the torn state of humankind and the whole world. When God blesses his people with peace, we must never think exclusively of peace of soul or of a military cease-fire. God’s peace brings the new order of a kingdom of peace that carries all before it inwardly and outwardly.

You can never hurt or kill souls, for you must live in absolute love. This love will become so complete that you cannot go to law against another. If someone wants to take your cloak, take off your jacket and give that as well. If someone demands of you one hour’s work, give two. It must be like this with everything.

We have, each in a different way, a gift and a service to perform for the body of the Church; and we need the services and gifts of others, as they need ours. We must go forward. The word of the Spirit must become ever more clear and sharp, the expression of love more pure and tender.

When the soul is set on fire by the Holy Spirit it triumphs in the body; a great fire of new life arises in it.
