An Hour with an Angel today is on peace. I’m impressed by the topic and wanted to comment, if you’ll let me.
Often we find ourselves pondering being a certain way in order to develop ourselves, to “grow.” When we ponder a way of being, we ask ourselves what value is produced by being that way.
Why should we be peaceful? What value is produced by being so?
If the purpose of life is for us to know ourselves as God, because God him/her/itself has so decreed, then the purpose of life is served by us becoming godlike.
And what is God like? The ways that God is like we often call the divine qualities. We probably have a sense of what these are from the sacred literature of the world’s religions and the channeled literature from the Company of Heaven. I think it safe to name love, bliss, joy, compassion, harmony, and unity among them. And safe to name “peace” as well.
