While internal politics divide people, and warring factions internationally call for violence, the message of Jesus about the peacemakers is one that gives the most important direction for people of all faiths.
The message comes from the Christian's holiest book, The Bible, and from what are considered the most important passages referencing Christ's message. It is Jesus, the Christ or the Anointed One, whose sacrifices and teachings are recognized by many of His followers everywhere, and the one about peace is found in the book of Matthew, the Sermon on the Mount, which also contains the Lords Prayer.
A thank you and a tribute today to those people around the world who volunteer to help others in a spirit of peace, regardless of their specific religious group, who risk their lives to do so and who by their personal dedication and sacrifices share the message and legacy of direction from a man called Jesus.
