Speak for the little ones

We are seeing good movement from many who speak up against injustices. There is also the strong movement of assistance and help to large numbers of people in many places in the world. Imagine the feeling of relief and the comfort when help arrives. Yet injustice continues to exist and in several places it is increasing. It is sad to hear about it and see it on news media.

Many may not know that I served on a board of directors of a crisis pregnancy center in Michigan. I was and still am very concerned about this injustice that occurs right here in our country. There have been almost 49 million babies that did not have a chance nor did they have a voice to speak in their own defense. This is one of the worst injustices and it seems like few really care. And it's one of the easiest to remedy.

The Scripture tells us that God is very close to those who have no voice and are defenseless. He tells us that we must speak for and defend them. I hope and pray that many more will speak and defend these little ones.
