For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father's family will perish. And who knows but that you have come to royal position for such a time as this?" - Esther 4:14

"Your desire to assume leadership should be rooted in the knowledge that as a leader you will be forced to rely on God alone -- and in the belief that there's no better situation to be in."
