Blessed Are The Peacemakers

This song is powerful. One of the best parts is:

"peace is not a silent state that comes upon us from within.

peace is not a force like rain that comes unbidden from above.

Peace. Is. Fire.

Peace is passion; a certain courage of heart, of iron."

The opposite of war isn't peace. It's "not war." Peace has to be build, cultivated, and managed.
