Sunday Best – August 2, 2020

I want you to know that in the last days and hours of my life you inspired me. You filled me with hope… Millions of people motivated simply by human compassion laid down the burdens of division. Around the country and the world you set aside race, class, age, language and nationality to demand respect for human dignity…

I urge you to answer the highest calling of your heart and stand up for what you truly believe. In my life I have done all I can to demonstrate that the way of peace, the way of love and nonviolence is the more excellent way… I say to you, walk with the wind, brothers and sisters, and let the spirit of peace and the power of everlasting love be your guide.

      – John Lewis

 

Friends, we live in a time when even the most noble ideas are disparaged as partisan politics. But every once in a while, beacons of everlasting truth and love cut through the fog we’ve generated.

 

May we answer the highest calling of our hearts.

May we do all we can to demonstrate a more excellent way.

May our final letters be love letters.

 

 

 

 

   * We can read more about John Lewis and his extraordinary life in his memoir, and more about the US Civil Rights movement in the amazing graphic novel trilogy he authored, March.

   * And our own tiny offering of love letters is coming very soon… ordering should be available next week!
