Week 2: Relationships & Reconciliation

Day 13: Peacemaking

Scripture Focus: Matthew 5:9
Blessed are the peacemakers,
    for they will be called children of God.

Devotional Reflection:
The holidays often bring together people with different opinions, personalities, and unresolved tensions. Christ calls us to be peacemakers, not peace-keepers. This means actively working toward reconciliation and harmony, even when it’s uncomfortable. Making peace doesn’t require us to avoid hard conversations but to approach them with humility, love, and prayer.

Reflection Question:
Where is God calling you to make peace this season? How can you show Christ’s peace in a difficult relationship?
