Esther 4:13-16
Through the instruction of Mordecai, Esther realized
that her life had far greater purpose than merely maintaining
her own immediate comfort and status quo.
Mordecai's words pierced her heart; and at a great risk, she
committed herself to follow his advice.
Esther's heart was turned from her own interests to the plans
and purposes of God.
Ultimately, not only did the king receive her, but he offered her
co-rulership with himself. (5:3), and later awarded her his
signet ring. This symbolized a new level of authority in her life.
Her courage resulted in a great deliverance of God's people.
Truly effective women are those who are turned from their
own short-sighted agenda to God's eternal purposes.
May we, by our actions and purpose of heart, not miss any
opportunity, purpose and privilege for being where God has put us.
God's blessing be upon our unity!
Psalm 133:1
Behold! How good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity.
