You can't dispel hate with hate. You'll never get rid of hate, anger, violence with more of the same thing. Only love can dispel hate, kindness overcomes anger, light overcomes the dark. Darkness will never overcome so long as there is light. In the same way, hate will never overcome as long as there is love. With both light & love, it matters not the amount. Even a small amount can change everything.
Someone bought me a clock that reads, "Faith to light the darkened sky." It's hard to believe that my light can even make a difference, but even in the darkest skies a little light shines. I can't change people, I can only live a changed life, shine a light. Be different. "The light keeps shining in the dark, & darkness has never put it out." John 1:5. Darkness can't overcome the light, can never extinguish the light. Darkness has not overpowered light. Darkness can't lay a hand on light, it's got nothing on us. Light wins. Love wins!
