Thank you, Phillip, for those encouraging words. And, peace with God is not 
an emotional high but it comes from a new life. The old is passed away and all 
things become new. Is it possible for men to be holy, in accord with the will 
and characteter of God, without coming into harmony with the principles which 
are an expression of His nature and will? No, it is not possible. Nor is it 
possible to have peace with God unless you are also reconciled to Him. 

Reconciled? What is that? Why do we need to be reconciled to God? Does anyone 
know?
