**1 CORINTHIANS 14:33**

“For God is not a God of disorder but of peace—as in all the congregations of the Lord’s people.”

“Peace is light, and everything that the soul thinks, says and does, is light that she sends out; and the enemy cannot get close to her, because he feels struck by this light, wounded and dazzled, and is forced to flee so as not to be blinded.

Peace is dominion, not only of oneself, but of others. So, before a peaceful soul, they remain either conquered or confounded and humiliated; therefore, they either let themselves be dominated, remaining friends, or they leave confounded, unable to sustain the dignity, the imperturbability, the sweetness of a soul who possesses peace. Even the most perverted ones feel the power that she contains.

This is why I glory so much in having Myself called God of peace – Prince of peace. There is no peace without Me; I alone possess it and give it to my children, as to legitimate children of mine, who remain bound as heirs of all my goods.

The world, creatures, do not have this peace; and what is not possessed cannot be given. At the most, they can give an apparent peace, which torments them inside – a false peace, which contains a poisonous sip within; and this poison puts to sleep the remorses of conscience, and leads one to the kingdom of vice.

*PRAYER OF THE DAY:*

“My sweet Jesus, You are the true peace. May you overshadow me in Your peace, so that I may never be disturbed, and may the shadow of Your peace, like dazzling light, keep far away from me anything or anyone that might shadow my peace.”
