In Honor of MLK Day

I came across this quote from a sermon by Dr. Martin Luther King from January 1965. He delivered this message to his congregation in Montgomery Alabama during some of the most difficult times in the movement towards Civil Rights . This inspired me when I read it... I hope it does the same for you.

God’s control is never usurped. If at times we despair because of the relatively slow progress being made in ending racial discrimination, let us gain new heart in the fact that God is able. In our sometimes difficult and often lonesome walk up freedom’s road, we do not walk alone. God walks with us. God has placed within the very structures of the universe certain absolute moral laws. We can neither defy nor break them. If we disobey them, they will break us. The forces of evil may temporarily conquer truth, but truth will ultimately conquer its conqueror. Our God is able.
