It is common to have broken relationships and sin. Broken relationships are the result of sin. One way that we can demonstrate maturity in our faith is to pursue peace in all our relationships. Generally, if we deal with our own sin, the brokenness will go away.
Think about broken relationships in your life today. How is sin keeping that relationship broken? If we were to pursue "peace" what would need to happen in our lives? Generally speaking, isn't the answer "personal holiness?" Whether it is brokenness because of our sin, or brokenness because of a lack of forgiveness, we can still pursue peace.
This is a great challenge today. Paul wrote, "As much as it depends on you, be a peace with all men." (Rm. 12:18)
Pursue peace and holiness today.
