A Fairy Tale Ending

From the pages of, For Such a Time as This, by Love God Greatly

Read: Esther 9:23-10:3/SOAP: 10:3

 Mordecai the Jew was second only to King Ahasuerus. He was the highest-ranking Jew, and he was admired by his numerous relatives. He worked enthusiastically for the good of his people and was an advocate for the welfare of all his descendants.

Esther 10:3

The Book of Esther is far from a fairy tale, but boy, does it read and end like one. Esther, a Jewish maiden, through a series of events that led to the previous queen being ousted, becomes Queen of Persia. She not only became the queen, but God used Esther, “for such a time as this,” to rescue her people from a murderous plot to annihilate them. I have thoroughly enjoyed retracing the details of this story, bit by bit, and have been blessed by the example of Esther’s faith and commitment to God in action. I hope you have too.

I pray you’ve enjoy our time with Esther and Mordecai and seeing the fingerprints of God’s sovereignty in and for the lives of His beloved people. If you have enjoyed it, I invite you to leave a comment. Today’s LGG Journal entry is a wonderful closure for this sessions journey – You won’t want to miss it.
