Was not Jesus an extremist for love: "Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you." Was not Amos an extremist for justice: "Let justice roll down like waters and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream." Was not Paul an extremist for the Christian gospel: "I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus."
Martin Luther King, Jr.

There will be times in your life when you want to pray but feel so far from God that prayer seems impossible.

It rises up against defeat, gloom, and despair and finds hope in God.
