Peace also refers to a sense of security and order within self and among persons, members of a community or group of communities, or a period of mutual agreement to cease fire and seek each other&#8217;s well being between or among governments or nations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Peace is freedom from disturbance; It is a state or period in which there is no war or a war has ended. This is why the wise say, &#8220;Every war is an invitation to peace.&#8221; It is a stress-free state of security and calmness that comes when there&#8217;s no fighting or war, everything coexisting in perfect harmony and freedom.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In our war-torn world, where humans continue to reject and fight the Prince of Peace, it seems like there&#8217;s not nearly enough peace or ever will be peace. The peace of this world can be perfect or imperfect, but only the peace of God is perfect. God gives his peace not as the world gives.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to Galtung, Johan, peace can be psychological or behavioural. The erudite author wrote, &#8220;Psychological peace&#8221; (such as peaceful thinking and emotions) is less well-defined, yet perhaps a necessary precursor to establishing &#8220;behavioural peace.&#8221; He went on, &#8220;Peaceful behaviour sometimes results from a &#8220;peaceful inner disposition.&#8221;\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He added, &#8220;It has been argued by some that inner qualities such as tranquility, patience, respect, compassion, kindness, self-control, courage, moderation, forgiveness, equanimity, and the ability to see the big picture can promote peace within an individual, regardless of the external circumstances of their life <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(Galtung, Johan (31 July 1996). <\/span><\/i><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Peace by Peaceful Means: Peace and Conflict, Development and Civilization (1st ed.).
