Quotes by John M. Perkins (?)

“Love Is The Final Fight”
― John M. Perkins

16 likes

“You have to be a bit of a dreamer to imagine a world where love trumps hate--but I don't think being a dreamer is all that bad. Joel prophesied that God would "pour out [His] Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, your young men will see visions" (Joel 2:28). I'm an old man, and this is one of my dreams: that my descendants will one day live in a land where people are quick to confess their wrongdoing and forgive the wrongdoing of others and are eager to build something beautiful together.”
― John M. Perkins, Dream with Me: Race, Love, and the Struggle We Must Win

“Yielding to God's will can be hard. And sometimes, it really hurts. But it always brings peace.”
