Happy are the Peacemakers! (Matthew 5:9)

“Miss Congeniality” is a move about an FBI Agent posing as a beauty queen contestant to catch a criminal.  During the contestant question period, each of the finalists was asked the question, “If you win, what do you want to promote during your year of being queen?”  All the contestants eventually answered, “World peace!” to which the audience applauded and cheered.  It seems that everyone wants peace and yet, most people have no idea how to achieve it.  The Lord said, “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the sons of God.”  The Lord knows how to find peace and if we want it, we need to seek it as the Lord provides for it.
