Can I tell you it's my honor to render this honor?!?
What a study in contrast,
a mighty warrior takes his stand;
for peace he fights to his last,
faith shield, word/sword in his hand.
From Ephesians did he arm
himself protected for the fight;
scripture was his haven warm,
his assurance he was right.
So he stood as Gandhi taught,
letting the Spirit guide each word;
it was heart-deep that he fought,
Christ’s encouragement he heard.
How tragic no convincing,
‘til mad bullet pierced his brain,
love’s empathy evincing
even as his life blood drain.
And the legacy he leaves us
he just borrowed from above:
“At the center of nonviolence,
stands the principle of love!”

Natasha, tho' I appreciate the feedback, I'll stick with honor here...it's my Canadian neighbors...or should I say neighbours when referrin' to them...who use the our vice the simpler or! ;)
Randy...t'anks...hopr Dr. King's enjoyin' it! :)
Hiya Ev...wonderful scripture; I am humbled by the compliment...t'anks! :)
T'anks neon 'n' Dallas, love; always great to see you both.
lc I truly do...and always a delight seein' you, darlin'!
Gem, no sin should be o'ershadowed or excused, but...as FORGIVEN as I am...knowin' the filth from which I've been saved...I can't help but be a most-strong proponent of "Hate the sin, not the sinner!" It's easy to be Christ-like, if that only involved lovin' the lovable, but where would that have left Matthew, the tax collector...Mary Magdelene...one of the few who stayed with Him even to the cross...the Samaritan woman, through whom an entire household was saved?!? I'm called to love not only the victim, but the perpetrator! Warren Buffet famously said that, "Every saint has a past, and every sinner a future!" Amen darlin'! As for your wonderment, it's kinda bitterly unfair to the many men who do not! But I gladl
y apologize in the stead of whomever hurt you enough to send ya reelin' in stereotype!
Yesu...wonderful to see you...t'anks!
Lapiz, schweetie...the armor was a direct reference to Ephesians 6:10 - 17! ;) I find great solace in that "ordnance"!
