During the Advent season, we think of peace. The angelic host announced, -Peace on earth...- Our present-day world, convulsed in conflict and division, says that it longs for peace. God will give peace. But it is only on God's terms that true peace comes to our world. Jesus, the Prince of Peace, speaking to his disciples, said, -Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.-
