"In those days, while Mordecai sat within the king's gate, two of the king's eunuchs, Bigthen and Teresh, doorkeepers, became furious and sought to lay hands on King Ahasuerus. So the matter became known to Mordecai, who told Queen Esther, and Esther informed the king in Mordecai's name."
Esther 2:21-22
Mordecai was willing to get involved when he saw evil being planned. Being a "whistle-blower" is not easy. It is easier to say, "It's not my problem; I don't want to get involved." I keep quiet out of fear that I will become the victim. But I need to be willing to put my life and reputation on the line when I see wrong being committed, even if I suffer negative consequences. Integrity demands it.
Today's Thought: Speaking out against wrong is a matter of integrity.
Have an involved day. Love you.
