Let
us not tire of preaching love: it is
the force that will overcome the
world. Let us not tire of preaching
love.
Though
we see that waves of violence
succeed in drowning the fire of
Christian love, love must win out;
it is the only thing that can.
 —Archbishop
Oscar Romero, July 23, 1978

for Martin
Luther King on his
Birthday
"I
have labored in vain
I have spent my strength
for nothing and vanity"
Isaiah 49:4
He is dead
who led us in the ways
that make for peace __
the turbulent roads of
nonviolence.
And we would not go
not all the way;
we lost the hope that
justice
could be reached by ways of
peace.
Yet still he lives
in the dream rising again
that if, like him, we will,
God works through us.
"I will give you as a light
to the nations,
that my salvation may reach
to the ends of the
earth" Isaiah
49:6
