Simple Ways to Manifest Peace

1. Gratitude.
Being grateful is so powerful and can lift you out
of the darkest pits.
2. Be generous
Give back to life. Find someone you can do a
simple act of kindness for. It doesn’t have to be
big. Something as little as opening a door for
someone can give a lot of love.

3. Be in the moment
Stop looking into the future at what you want
next. Enjoy what is… Yes, there’s always

simple things in the moment.

5. Be open to Life’s surprises


Make it a habit to search for the surprises life
brings you. Be open to new experiences outside of
your norm. We get so comfortable with where
we’re at, that sometimes we resist anything
unknown. Ask God to open you up to new
possibilities in your life.
Different Levels of Peace
Importance of Peace

In Individual’s Life
Having peace in mind and in life, no one will spend
energy and money on jealousy, leg pulling,
fighting, and ultimately on wars. Peace connects
you better with other people. Peace helps you
understand the surroundings. It makes the mind
like a base to the home, roots to the tree.
Importance of Peace

In Society
Peace and  security  is  an  essential  factor  of  human  life. 
A peaceful and  secure  environment  is  critical  to 
every society since it affects all aspects of economic and 
social development in a country, and is a necessary sin-
qua non to the realization of human rights.
Importance of Peace

In the World

Peace builds,  strengthens  and  restores


Peace is  the  bold,  courageous  and  ultimate  response  to 
the  notion  that  violence  provides  any  viable  solution  for 
the conflicts of our world. Where war destroys and tears 
apart, peace builds, strengthens and restores
