While we may forsee the OUTWARD APPEARANCE of peace upon a people or nation, it is the UNDERLYING THINKING that must change to create a true and lasting peace. To change the conditions of our outer world, we are invited to ACTUALLY BECOME the conditions of our desire from within. When we do so, the new conditions of health or peace are mirrored in the world around us. To bring Peace to those whom we love in this world, we must first BECOME that very peace in our thoughts, feelings, and bodies.
God's blessing be yours, And well may it befall you; Christ's blessing be yours And well be you entreated; Spirit's blessing be yours, And well spend you your lives, Each day that you rise up, Each night that you lie down.
~ Celtic Blessing from CARMENA GADELICA by Alexander Carmichael
