Peace is a healing word, invoking a vision of wholeness. It is God’s hope for us. We live in a broken place. When we spread God’s peace to others, we place our hands into the world’s wounds and with Christ, become healers of the world.
“A week later his disciples were again in the house, and Thomas was with them. Although the doors were shut, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.” Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here and see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it in my side. Do not doubt but believe.” John 20: 26-27
