A Revolution of Love
Peacemaking doesn't mean passivity.
It is the act of interrupting injustice
without mirroring injustice,
the act of disarming evil
without destroying the evildoer,
the act of finding a third way
that is neither fight nor flight
but the careful arduous pursuit
of reconciliation and justice.
It is about a revolution of love that is
big enough to set both the oppressed
and the oppressors free.
