“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.”
This Beatitude agrees with the other beatitudes. To be merciful and not one to stir up things. To be a peacemaker means to bring peace in the middle of agony, a hard time, or even a fight. To not disagree and to dissolve the conflict at hand. God doesn’t want to stir up trouble and cause conflict, that’s the devils job. God wants to bring peace and to be a keeper of peace.
