Well known author Max Lucado takes the book of Esther and weaves faith and hope into our lives when all around is a mess and hopeless. Esther came from humble beginnings, from a despised race, but she followed God's plan and allowed Him to use her to save His people from being wiped out. No mention of God in the book of Esther and yet His hand at work is very obvious. Just so with our lives today, God is at work in us and through us, though we may not see it. Can we trust Him? Will we trust Him? He's the God of grand reversals, miracles, the impossible. We can be part of His story, now, in this moment.
