We receive His peace when we ask Him for it. We keep His peace by extending it to others. Those are the keys and there are no others.

We are not held back by the love we didn't receive in the past, but by the love we're not extending in the present.

The force that keeps the planets revolving around the sun would be glad to handle the circumstances of your life, if only you would ask him to.

We have to wage peace. That's the law of the spirit is the waging of peace, because if we simply seek to manage the effects of hatred, which does need to be done, of course. But if all we do is manage the effects of hatred, then hatred will simply stalk us the next decade or the next generation. We need to dismantle hatred itself.

Through prayer we find what we cannot find elsewhere: a peace that is not of this world.

Everything we do is infused with the energy with which we do it. If we’re frantic, life will be frantic. If we’re peaceful, life will be peaceful. And so our goal in any situation becomes inner peace. Our internal state determines our experience of our lives; our experiences do not determine our internal state.
