Philippians 2:9-10

(John 1:1) He is the Author and Perfecter of our faith, (Heb. 12:2), and it is only by His great name in which we can be saved. One day very soon Christ will return to rule. And everyone, believers, non-believers, angels and demons, will bow at the feet of Jesus and every tongue will confess Him as Lord. What a glorious day that will be will heaven and earth declare Him King!

An internal peace of the heart based on faith, love, and the promises of God, and a peace that can never shaken by the forces of this world. As His ambassadors, we are too extend that peace to others. To share the Gospel of Jesus Christ and show them the way to finding that same peace for themselves. For God blesses us to be a blessing to others.
