Aftertaste: Light, Love, and Martin Luther King Jr.



Today is Martin Luther King Jr. day - a day to remember and contemplate this saintly figure who took the words of Jesus quite seriously in leading the civil rights movement.  

Here is one of his quotes (taken from brainyquotes.com) from one of his speeches for us to contemplate in response to the sermon yesterday on being the light of the world:

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that.  Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.  - Martin Luther King Jr. 

May this be our prayer, that we love like Christ so we are seen like light in this world.
