Restoration is His ministry

"Blessed are those who work for peace, for they will be called the children of God" Matthew 5:9

No matter how bad or difficult the relationship was, it is still worth restoring. For five years, they did not talk, could not see eyes to eyes, they ignored each other's presence. A relationship that was so broken, yet by the grace of God, it restored.

With God's grace, she humbled herself and make the first step. A step that required humility and courage. She did and it pleased God. Through her, I saw the power and glory of God. And with this step, the communication line once again open between them. Oh! Praise God for all things He has done! Certainly, God is pleased when we are His peacemakers. For He has said, "Blessed are those who work for peace, for they will be called the children of God".

Oh Dear Father in Heaven,
I want to be your peacemaker, I want to receive Your blessings in my life and truly be called the children of God. Teach me more about humility. Remove my pride and help me to sympathize others' feelings. Lord, empower me with Your grace to restore and reconcile all relationships in my life..... Amen
