"If not you, then who? If not now, then when?"

I just finished watching the movie Amazing Grace for the second time. It is about the life of a hero of mine, William Wilberforce, who brought about the end of the African slave trade in Europe. I'm fired up. Challenged. Encouraged. Convicted. I want to see the end of modern day slavery in my lifetime. I want to be a part of that change. Watch the movie. Today there are over 27 million slaves. I pray that God stirs your heart as He has stirred mine and that we never forget...never lose hope...never surrender until this dream of abolition becomes a reality. Let me leave you with a quote from William, himself, "Having heard all of this, you may choose to look the other way...but you can never say again that you did not know."
