The law provides the opportunities to do things, to help people in ways that can really make
a difference in their lives. One of the Scriptures that really drive it home for me is Micah
6:8, “Walk holy before your God,” and the law gives you an opportunity to do that,
to fight for justice. A lot of times it’s fighting for people who, if it were not for
you and the opportunities that you’ve been given, wouldn’t have a voice. If you look
at societies that are about to crumble, when they’re dictators, one of the first groups
they try to eliminate are the lawyers, because sometimes we stand in the gaps for those,
we’re the voice for the voiceless in a lot of times. So, I think my profession allows
me to do that and that’s the rewarding aspect of it.
