1. Make Peace
Blessed are the
peacemakers, for they shall
be called the children of God.
(Matthew 5:9 KJV )
67: Make Peace

2. What is a
peacemaker?
A peacemaker
is someone who
chooses to make
peace rather than
pick a fight. That is
sometimes a hard
choice to make,
especially when
someone has made
us angry, and we
want to show that
person how upset
we are at what he
or she has done.

3. When we choose to
forgive and make
peace with someone
who has wronged
us, then we are
peacemakers.
People can see
that God’s Spirit
lives in us and
that we are
children of God.
67: Make Peace 3

4. Jesus was a peacemaker. He
chose to do the things that
were kind toward others—
He forgave others.
His actions and
words showed
others how
much God
loved them.
God blesses
us when we
choose to show
forgiveness and
be a peacemaker.
When we choose to make
peace instead of fighting, we are being a
good reflection of Jesus’ love to others.
67: Make Peace 4

5. Action
Talk about times when
you could choose to be a
peacemaker, even when
someone has done something
wrong to you.
