Dear One,
Bring peace into every situation in which you find yourself.
Peace with everyone should be your goal, your aim in life.
When you can appreciate everyone as having legitimate and unique opinions separate from your opinions, then it is easy to keep peace. The opinions of the other person are according to that person's station and experiences in life.
Granting everyone the right to have his own views about things is called grace because grace frees everyone from having to believe your views and opinions about things. Grace is always flexible, never rigid.
Rigid opinions, rigid politics, rigid philosophies, rigid beliefs, rigid theologies and rigid customs always separates people.
Grace and flexibility always unite people.
Grace gives a person the right to hold his own views and opinions, though they might be offensive to you. Grace unites you with others regardless of differing opinions between you.
Grace finds areas of agreement in the midst of different opinions.
I extended grace to you while you were still a sinner and I extended grace to you when you rebelled against spiritual laws. I still extend grace to you, even when you are walking according to the passions of the flesh.
So you must extend grace to other people who are not of like mind with you.
That's what I do and that's what My children should do.
Love, God
