Psalm 122

Psalm 122 
English Standard Version (ESV) 

  Peace.
  What's it mean to you?
  Spend a moment contemplating what it would mean for peace to break out.
  We all have different images.  For some it's personal, the sense of calm that happens when everything is in its place.  For others it's relational, the unity that results when everyone is on the same page and no conflict is causing strife.  For others it's global, the lack of war and the image of people working together in unity.  For most of us it's some combination.
  We pray for peace.  I don't know exactly what peace looks like, because turmoil and conflict have been surrounding us since Eden, but we trust that God's peace will be greater than we could ever possibly imagine.  It will reign, and there will be no more war.

May we pray for peace
