We receive His peace when we ask Him for it. We keep His peace by extending it to others. Those are the keys and there are no others.

The quotation frames peace as a spiritual gift that is both received and sustained through practice. “Ask Him for it” suggests peace is not merely a psychological state achieved by willpower, but something accessed through prayer, surrender, or alignment with the divine. The second sentence makes peace reciprocal and ethical: it is kept not by guarding it privately but by giving it away—through forgiveness, compassion, and nonjudgment toward others. The closing claim, “Those are the keys and there are no others,” underscores a moral absolutism typical of Williamson’s Course-influenced spirituality: inner tranquility is inseparable from how one treats other people.
