The Importance of Peace Making In Building a Community

What is it that makes a society worth living in? It is the people that live around us. Living in peace is both an inward as well as an outward process. Inwardly, we need to find in our hearts the things that make us fearful of losing our temper and jumping to violent ways. Outwardly, it is a way of life where we treat each other equally and love others despite their culture, caste, religion, or political differences. Peace making is as important as living a healthy and balanced life. 

You can practice a few things in your everyday life to make your life more peaceful and live in harmony. Peace seeking is what makes us curious to understand the people around us better, so here are a few things you can adopt in your life.

Don’t try to control people, but try to live with the fact that every individual is not the same. What you expect from someone will not guarantee the same results. So, rather than controlling someone else’s nature or behavior, try to adjust yourself and make peace with them.

Spend time with yourself. This helps you in finding your inner peace. Every day we come across so many people and listen to their problems. This makes us feel unstable and somehow triggers a lot of emotions. So, spend time with yourself by going for a walk in the park or sitting quietly and listening to your thoughts rushing from your head. You can also enroll yourself in a center for spiritual formation.

Be tolerant enough to think that you will make a change in your life as well as the people around you. Please don’t give up on the first attempt, but keep trying and let your inner peace take its place here. Believe in yourself and wait for the end results.

Learn to seek forgiveness from people and live in joy. Don’t keep your feelings piled up for someone for a long time. This only makes you impatient and intolerant. It is always better to forgive others when they are ready to accept their mistakes. A person who forgives is someone who makes peace with his life and follows the true path of Jesus.

Jesus and justice conference taught us to keep others before ourselves and understand the change in their behavior or actions. It is we who can make a change by adapting the good things in ourselves.

Jesus and Justice Conference for Conflict Free Society

  When we talk about peace and human security, both depend on the situations where justice prevails and a conflict-free society. No matter what form of conflict is there, it contributes to the denial of justice. It contributes to the denial of the dignity and rights of people and communities. And this can even lead to consequences of violent conflicts. That is why churches and ecumenical councils must contribute to their witness in the protection of individuals and communities. They work with others to build peaceful societies. Jesus and justice conference is all about building peaceful societies.   Justice is involved and included in every form of concern related to social, economic, political, and ecological. Considering that human security is multi-dimensional, it is justice that has an impact on these securities.   As far as peace seeking and making are concerned, there are Churches working for this mission aiming at peacebuilding and peace theology. It helps people and c

Finding the Ideal Center of Spiritual Information

Let's get one thing straight: it's difficult to find a good spiritual director or a center for spiritual information. Those who are serious about developing their prayer and interior life, on the other hand, must keep looking until they find a good fit—someone who is pursuing holiness, knowledgeable about prayer and the Catholic faith, devoted to the Magisterium, and profoundly eager to support your spiritual development and help you recognize the workings of the Holy Spirit in your life—even if they aren't the "perfect" person.   Although there is no one best way to go about it, there are a few tried-and-true steps you can take to find an ideal center for spiritual formation right away: ●      Speak with your pastor. He may not accept you as a student, but as the spiritual father of your parish (and thus you!), he is a good place to start and may be able to recommend another priest, religious, or layperson from your parish or diocese. Even if your priest can
