Peace: An aspect of God's Love

Peace is an aspect of God's love that lives in you when you are at ease with your loving.
Relax into God's love, and the peace of his love must continually reside in you.
When you fight against God's love, this disturbs your own inner peace, and you can never be peaceful when you fight against God, by your not being who God created you to be.
Inner peace is an assurance being held in faith by you that you live within God's love. When you live within God's love, you are always peaceful.
Be at peace when you piece together again God's love within yourself.
As much as you dismantle any aspect of God's love, you will lose this feeling of peace, as you will become agitated in other emotions, other than love. You may become angry or sad, or happy, or mad, but they are all substitute states for the real peace that is only obtained from remaining within God's love, entire as it is.
Drop any part of love to enter another emotion, and you will lose peace in the process. When you drop into an emotion, do not drop away from love. Let love fill the emotion with itself, and so make it a real emotion for you, and do not down-step away from love to make the emotion separate from love. If you do this the emotion will overwhelm you with itself, and so then you will lose your hold on God's peace.
The Christian bible says in it somewhere that there is a right time for everything to take its place within your life.
This means that if we are in a hurry, and as a result of our rushing, if we move away ourselves from this right time, we will lose our inner peace, in the process of doing so.
The above bible reference comes from Ecclesiastes 3, in the old Testament.
Here is the first verse of this well-known reading.
"To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven."
This is because inner peace does not hurry itself to be peaceful. It is just peaceful as it is.
Any increase of the natural pace of life causes you to lose contact with the immediacy of the present moment of now, and when you dwell either on the future, or on the past, you will lose hold of the inner peace that only exists in this now of now.
Jesus Christ also said to us that he has left his peace with us.
When Jesus said to us in the bible that, "My peace be with you," he meant it. It was his departing gift to us all.
This verse is to be found in Saint John's gospel, chapter 14, and verse 27.
"Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you."
This giving to you of his peace allows your soul to rest within God's love.
This will happen for you just as much as you do not remain agitated by anything else. When you are fearful of anything, you are not being totally loving, and so this means that you are sinning. The way to heal yourself is simply to return to being peaceful, or perfectly still within God's love, by accepting fully this offer of his peace to you.
Be at peace, and all is well. Love loves perfectly only from a place of peace. Be peaceful to be loving, love fully to be peaceful.

Stay peaceful when alone, without becoming agitated by loneliness.

Peace is the inner actual of a person to be in harmony with his good thoughts and emotions. He's unperturbed of what's going around him. He's in himself abiding with God's peace which the aftermath of good behavior.

Yes, being in harmony is a big part of peace, and I think too, self-control, in controlling our anger, and reactivity to events, helps us keep our peace too.

I think that we all need more peace in our lives. The world does not seem to be a naturally very peaceful thing either. There is always some violence going on in the world.

Yes, loneliness can agitate and upset us, but if we can still remain at peace while alone, we can recognise that God is always close by too, and so in truth, we are never truly alone.

The ways of the world and the reality we have created have made us move away from love and peace.
When love takes a back seat, we are sowing the seed of disquiet - peace goes out the window.
We need deep pondering, and cleansing, to lead a life that we are ordained as time is running out on our species.
I may be alone at times, but do not feel lonely.
I am at peace with myself and have time for self-reflection.
When I am alone, I get a feeling my creator is closer to me.

When the world is not at peace, it affects my peace too, as I feel agitated by non-peace, violence, and wars going on.
I would prefer to live in a naturally peaceful society, with all its violence removed, and replaced by love instead.
This world seems to want to live apart from peace though, and not many societies have ever been able to remain peaceful, over time.
The dragons will always be around to breathe their fire and destruction onto the peaceful, it seems.
We need to wait for the next world for real peace then, I would say.

I guess at least being disappointed in yourself will help you to better control your anger next time it wants to come out of you too.
I would say that real peace has no anger in it.
