Psalms 34:14

Om dit te vermy, noem die apostel Paulus 'n ander lys van "lewensdoelwitte" wat ons moet nastreef. Kom ons bestudeer hulle een vir een.

In Judaism, peace—shalom—is rooted in the Hebrew word shalem, which means “whole” or “complete.” True shalom implies that diverse parties purposely set aside their differences and agree to see the good in one another, not just living alongside but among one another for a higher calling or purpose. This devotional plan explores 12 different steps we can all take toward achieving shalom in our lives.
