A Birthday Observance

Today, we have the  Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. birthday observance.  "Drum major for justice" is one of the references to a peaceful leader who pushed for nonviolence and equality.   I remember the time of active protest, demonstrations, and unequal opportunity.   
The scriptures tell us about peace.  Matthew 5:9 reads, "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called  sons of God."(NIV)
One of the cool things about peace is that we all have the ability to contribute to it.

Take care,
Sylvia
