Esther

“For I know the plans that I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope”. Jer 29:11

Throughout the Bible we encounter story after story where God uses many different people from different cultures, ages, races, and of different economic status to carry out his plans for the world. One of these characters is a young Jewish woman named Esther, who becomes Queen of Susa.

As Esther entered the King’s court she was showing unbelievable courage. Esther not only shows favor in the eyes of the King, but she is granted anything she wants within one half of the kingdom.
