About This Quote

All of us have been given peace as a gift from God, yet we sometimes do not recognize it as such. In the real sense, peace is a gift from God. It is a gift from those who have been given this gift to those who have not been given it. We have been given peace by those who have been given it and they continue to give it to us. It is a gift that keeps on giving.
