Why fight?

For the past few days, I have praying and pondering about what my 10...10...10 actions are and what they will be. This has led to a new blog, a passion for bringing awareness, looking at where I spend money, becoming more educated, etc.

Why? Why am I involved in this fight? Here is one passage from the Bible that helps me answer this question.

HCSB version
Micah 6:8
Mankind, He has told you what is good
and what it is the Lord requires of you:
to act justly,
to love faithfulness,
and to walk humbly with your God.

In The Message paraphrase by Eugene Peterson, the passage reads:
But he’s already made it plain how to live, what to do, what God is looking for in men and women.
It’s quite simple:
Do what is fair and just to your neighbor,
be compassionate and loyal in your love,
And don’t take yourself too seriously—
take God seriously.
