Abigail’s story is a stirring reminder that when we are faced with wrongdoing, we ought to think it 
over and see what we can do. When we 
do, we will likely find that we are more able than we think. Although the task of peacemaking can be frightening, risky, and dangerous—and might not always consider what is fair—imagine what a difference it might make to follow Abigail’s lead, acting wisely and urgently for peace.
