All of us would prefer to merely dip our toes or wade in the waters of the cause. But injustices are never righted by people taking an occasional lukewarm interest. Conviction must lead to commitment if we are to succeed in ending abortion. It requires us to be brave and bold enough to stop hugging the shoreline and dive past our fears into the deep uncertain waters of a life lived for others. - //Rebecca Richmond (NCLN)//
