Peace is a universal desire shared by all men. Peace from the inner psychological point of view is the product of an internal state of well-being. But there is also another peace, social peace, the one that arises from coexistence with our neighbor. And this peace does not depend on the human virtues that are forms of error, but on the spiritual gifts that come from God. Peace is a fruit of mercy (compassion, kindness, gentleness), of righteousness (golden rule), of piety (constancy, firmness, devotion).
God is perfect and like the sun that transmits its rays, he transmits to us his qualities to help those who need him, God is the fundament of the peace:
"For this is what the high and exalted One says—
he who lives forever, whose name is holy:
´I live in a high and holy place,
but also with the one who is contrite and lowly in spirit,
to revive the spirit of the lowly
and to revive the heart of the contrite." Isaiah 57:15.
Selfishness, that is, the desire for happiness, puts us in conflict with our neighbor, because when we are selfish we no longer share the spiritual goods that are unlimited, but we compete for the apparent goods that are scarce, we compete for power, money, fame. With selfishness come deception, envy and frustration.
In the Bible God does not want this for man, God is against perversion, that is why the prophet Isaiah explains to us that God wants to forgive men for their sins when men repent:
"I have seen their ways, but I will heal them;
I will guide them and restore comfort to Israel´s mourners,
creating praise on their lips.
Peace, peace, to those far and near,
says the LORD. ´And I will heal them.´" Isaiah 57:18-19.
Conversion to God is what restores peace among men, because ultimately, if we do not achieve this, only private wars remain among men:
"But the wicked are like the tossing sea,
which cannot rest,
whose waves cast up mire and mud.
There is no peace for the wicked! says my God" Isaiah 57:20-21.
