Peace

Is it possible, do you think, to have peace without conflict?

When Christ says, 'peace l leave with you; my peace I give to you ... ' what is he saying?

    I have recently been thinking about what "a peace that surpasses all understanding" means... and I have come to the conclusion that the kind of peace we have in Christ is a contentment with situations/trials. It doesn't make sense in the face of pain but what more can I hope for than to be content in the knowledge that Christ is in control?

    As for conflict... it is neccessary. Simply our sinful nature. Not our society, not our leaders... us. That is why God and his peace stand out so brightly in contrast.
