Absolute peace is amiss in the land of the Living

Life is war!

No rest till you are dead, no absolute peace for anyone till you breath your last air. That is a fact, no matter how rich and powerful you have become in this world, something still keeps you at alert anytime of the day, there are things that wanders through your mind no matter how secure your chambers are, no matter how heavily protected your family and friends are.

Both the wicked and the just are troubled, that is the way the world was made. Everyday is filled with evil says the Holy books, those who believe and find solace in the supernatural being often excercise the peace that is missing in the world.

Why do we only have to rest in peace when we all die? Why can't we not experience war, or famine, go broke nor get heartbroken, fall sick and losing someone dear to us, loose our jobs nor get scammed and swindled of the little we have. Do we have to go through economic recession and meltdown, or experience an outbreak of deadly diseases? There is no uttermost peace among the living, two things brings peace to mankind; death and Christ.

Christ Jesus is the prince of peace, God himself is peace. You can either tap your share of peace from him or let death come take you, no matter how cruel or bizarre someone dies, peace comes to his or her soul afterwards, provided the soul is not dammed eternally!
