A true profile in courage, Esther is the story of a Jewish girl who became Queen over Persia and was God's instrument to save her people. If you've read the story, you know the almost "Hollywood-like" sequence of events. There's good vs. evil in the narrative of Mordecai and Haman. There's the unlikely rise to queen by Hadassah; who becomes Esther. And there's God's providence through it all...knowing there was a plan in place and He used simple, obedient people to usher it in.
What about us? Do we read a story like Esther and then close the book and walk away leaving unchanged? That same God who used Esther uses people like you and I today. He is still looking for those who will take stand and rise up "for such a time as this." This last profile in this series is critical: will we acknowledge the weight of the times we live in AND will we be obedient to what God is asking us to do?
