Grow to maturity. Encourage each other. Live in harmony and peace. Then the God of love and peace will be with you (2 Corinthians 13:11; NLT).
Peace and justice
Are not rationed:
We can grow them
Anywhere!
All it takes
Is love and wisdom!
All it takes
Is being fair!
So, let’s always
Welcome strangers,
Offer help,
And show our care.
Peace and justice
Are not rationed:
So, let’s spread them
Everywhere!
Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it (Psalm 34:14; NIV).
Love good, and establish justice (Amos 5:15; ESV).

Do not judge others, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn others, or it will all come back against you. Forgive others, and you will be forgiven. Give, and you will receive.

The amount you give will determine the amount you get back (Luke 6:37-8; NLT).
