WORD-FILLED WEDNESDAY








The Lord has been challenging me in the book of Esther.

I hear of so many problems, see so many needs, and yet feel so small. But GOD!

God shows us who He is in our darkest hour. He turns our mourning to gladness; He never changes. He is the same God of Esther, who moved beyond what seemed impossible... as they desperately sought for His intervention. I pray that I will be desperate to seek God for such a time as this.

Please stop by Amy Deane's blog and consider joining WFW!

    That is exactly where I am today. For such a time as this. I made a huge decision yesterday with the Lord's help and I am just seeking Him today and every day.

    You are a blessing.

    I love the story of Esther. I am getting ready to begin the Beth Moore study in September, but I have already read the book of Esther in the Bible.
