Peace on Earth, Peace at Heart
In 1963 Pope John addressed his great encyclical Pacem in Terris to a world living under the shadow and threat of war. He spoke fearlessly of a divinely established order in human affairs which is the basis of peace.
The world will never be the dwelling place of peace till peace has found a home in the heart of each and every person, till every person preserves in himself the order ordained by God to be preserved.
Pacem in Terris. Peace begins with me. (Sacred Space website).
Let’s make this world a better place, a more peaceful one. And that thing can happen if only we- each of us- found a home of peace at heart. Not everywhere else. Peace begins inside our heart.

Glory to God in the highest [heaven], and on earth peace among men with whom He is well pleased [men of goodwill, of His favor]
--- Luke 2:14
