SPIRITUAL EXPLORATIONS – 354



+ We are called to create and enjoy a realm of compassion, peace, justice and sustainable abundance for all.

+
Kindness and truth shall meet;
Justice and peace shall kiss.
Truth shall spring out of the earth,
and justice shall look down from heaven.
The Lord himself will give his benefits;
our land shall yield its increase.
Justice shall walk before him,
and salvation, along the way of his steps.
-- Psalm 85

+ This is the last post on the heavenly attribute of peace but it really isn’t because we move right on to justice which is absolutely necessary for a real peace. The psalmist here sees this connection and we must not miss this connection.  There simply cannot be a lasting, authentic peace without an abundance of justice.  This is the truth.  Heavenly peace is our true reality which we can access freely through prayer and offer generously through our wise, compassionate and courageous action.
 
+ Spirituality & Practice offers plenty of resources on the practice of Peace and plenty of resources on the practice of Justice. Also S&P provides a 12s Gallery of Memes on Peace and a 12s Gallery of Memes on Justice.  Also, there is plenty of resources on the practice of Connections and a 12s Gallery on Connections.

+ I would love it if you offered a guest post.  And, I have work to do on the Abundancetrek Peace page. Maybe you can help.  Send an email with the subject “Peace” or “Heavenly Attributes” or “Guest Post” to John@abundancetrek.com.
