Peacemakers
"Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God."Matthew 5:9
Reflection
A peacemaker is not someone who runs from a fight: it is someone who steps in to put out the fire. God calls those people His children.
Prayer
Father, use me to bring peace where there is fighting. Amen!
Talk about it as a family
- What does a peacemaker do?
- Is a peacemaker someone who runs from fights?
- When could you help bring peace between friends?
5-minute activity
Role-play an argument between two toys, and let the child be the peacemaker who helps them listen and make up. Then switch roles. Read Matthew 5:9.
