{Esther}

Fun fact: This was almost JN’s name! No joke for most of my pregnancy we considered naming JN, Esther.

I love the book of Esther so much.

There’s such a climax that does not disappoint. Oh, how the Lord used Esther to save a whole people is just astonishing.

Think about it. In her time women were literally nothing, and less nothing in society. Didn’t have a place in a man’s world must less were able to stand up for a cause.

But, not in God’s eyes. God uses the unlikely in his reverse economy every single time to prove it is only by his hand that each piece was orchestrated.

Esther had a purpose and that was to save an entire nation!!! This was at the expense of possibly being beheaded like the King’s wife before her.
