Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was an incredible man. Although he was a human, Dr. King lived a life of what we may call a superhero. King walked this earth in his complete purpose and made an impact on our hearts years after his assassination, in 1968.
The life of Dr. King was so honorable. He was a man of great intellect and a man of God. King touched nations of people, empowering them to take a stand. He walked in his purpose with so much love, light, and wisdom.
Here’s a few quotes that inspire me today:
“There can be no deep disappointment where there is not deep love.”
“Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.”
“I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear.”
“Power without love is reckless and abusive, and love without power is sentimental and anemic. Power at its best is love implementing the demands of justice, and justice at its best is power correcting everything that stands against love.”
“Forgiveness is not an occasional act. It is a permanent attitude.”
“Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase.”
“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.”
“Change does not roll in on the wheels of inevitability, but comes through continuous struggle.”
“Even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream.”
Let these quotes resonate within you as we celebrate Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. day. Allow his words to fill your mind. Decipher between his thoughts and emotions behind what he was saying.
Be inspired!
