Romans 12:8 NASB "If possible, so far as it depends on you, be at peace with all people."There are two sides! Today's verse is about finding peace with others! There are always two sides of any argument, any disagreement but the key is always trying to find the middle ground. Carolyn and I have had our share of disagreements but we have also had our share of finding the middle ground. It all depends on what we are trying to accomplish. If its about me being right all the time, then we will never find the peace that comes when we can both agree. That doesn't mean that we have to give in but that in giving in we find the peace that will bring a calm resolution to the disagreements. Finding the peace is always more important than being right! Let's let that sink in as we find ourselves in a disagreement with someone. Finding peace, is better than waging war just because we think we are right. BTW, did you catch the part of the verse that says "... so far as it depends on us"! peace, tom
