Dear siblings-in-Christ,
“God shall judge between the nations, And rebuke many people; They shall beat their swords into plowshares, And their spears into pruning hooks; Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, Neither shall they learn war anymore.” Isaiah 2:4
As the Russia-Ukraine crisis escalates, we see the fragility of peace when hawks and vultures seek to stir things up for their own benefit.
i hope that we can unlearn the ways of violence – and come to realise that war and violence are never solutions to any problem so that we will beat swords to plowshares and learn of war no more.
Please keep praying for a peaceful resolution – in this crisis, and in the different situations in our lives – for the One we follow is the Prince of Peace.
Shalom,
miak
