Thursday, April 19: Where Do We Go From Here?

Inspiration:

 

Only in growth, reform, and change, paradoxically enough, is true security to be found.  –Anne Morrow Lindbergh 

Where Do We Go From Here?

Let us be dissatisfied until America will no longer have a high blood pressure of creeds and an anemia of deeds.

Let us be dissatisfied until the tragic walls that separate the outer city of wealth and comfort from the inner city of poverty and despair shall be crushed by the battering rams of the forces of justice.

Let us be dissatisfied until those who live on the outskirts of hope are brought into the metropolis of daily security.

Let us be dissatisfied until slums are cast into the junk heaps of history, and every family will live in a decent, sanitary home….

Let us be dissatisfied until from every city hall, justice will roll down like waters, and righteousness like a mighty stream.

Let us be dissatisfied until that day when the lion and the lamb shall lie down together, and every[one] will sit under [their] own vine and fig tree, and none shall be afraid.

Let us be dissatisfied, and [all] will recognize that out of one blood God made all [people] to dwell upon the face of the earth.
