LOVE is a verb

People of faith and moral conscience, reclaim Valentine’s Day as a Day of Revolutionary Love, Day of Rising.

We resist all executive orders and policies that put people in harm’s way.

We commit to fight for social justice through the ethic of love — love for others, our opponents, and ourselves.

On Valentine’s Day, we will rise up across the U.S. and around the world in music, poetry, dance and engage Congress to declare that #RevolutionaryLove is the call of our times….

As Dr. Kubler Ross explained:

There are only two emotions: love and fear. All positive emotions come from love, All negative emotions from fear.

From love flows happiness, contentment, peace, and joy. From fear comes anger, hate, anxiety and guilt.

It’s true that there are only two primary emotions, love and fear. But it’s more accurate to say that there is only love or fear, for we cannot feel these two emotions together, at exactly the same time.

They’re opposites.

If we’re in fear, we are not in a place of love. When we’re in a place of love, we cannot be in a place of fear.

The Call of Our Times is for people of faith and moral conscience to rise up as an army of moral resistance rooted in love.

As 1 Corinthians 13 explains LOVE:

If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.

If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.

If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast,but do not have love, I gain nothing.

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.  It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.

Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Love never fails…
And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

As Dostoevski said: “Love in action is a harsh and dreadful thing compared with love in dreams.”

As Dorothy Day taught, “The only thing we can do about people is to love them…The final word is love.”

And as Jimi Hendrix nailed it, “When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace.”

Godspeed on #RevolutionaryLove #LoveArmy #1BillionRising #MoralResistance
