Those Who Cannot Speak For Themselves

If you keep quiet at a time like this, deliverance and relief for the Jews will arise from some other place, but you and your relatives will die. Who knows if perhaps you were made queen for just such a time as this?” [Esther 4.14] 

If it's right, and you have a voice in the matter, but you don't use your voice in the matter, God will handle the matter another way and you will not enjoy the blessings you failed to speak up for.

Esther's story establishes the precedent above regarding any and all injustice. The murder of innocent unborn children comes to mind... And, my friend, Melissa, comes to mind, who faithfully runs a pregnancy center...

Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves; ensure justice for those being crushed. Yes, speak up for the poor and helpless, and see that they get justice. [Proverbs 31.8-9]

Father, may we never miss our timing on speaking up for what is right. And, may Your richest blessings be on those who fight for those who cannot speak for themselves. So be it.
