Words from Martin Luther King Jr. as we begin 2010:
“So I say to you, seek God and discover Him and make Him a power in your life. Without Him all of our efforts turn to ashes and our sunrises into darkest nights. Without Him, life is a meaningless drama with the decisive scenes missing. But with him we are able to rise from the fatigue of despair to the bouyancy of hope. With him we are able to rise from the midnight of desperation to the daybreak of joy. St. Augustine was right—we were made for God and we will be restless until we find rest in him”.
A power in our lives promoting meaning, hope, joy and rest—words and realities we all desire to experience. Thank you Martin for the reminder and the encouragement!
I love the idea that life without God is a drama with scenes missing-a poignant image to share with others.
