Nonviolence Quote by Dillon Burroughs

““Has God called you to speak out for peace in a tense situation? Are there lives on the line God is calling you to stand up for, to declare peace to, and to encourage toward a non-violent solution? If so, do it. You never know what might happen. Maybe the Lord is likewise sending you to save many lives from destruction.””
