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.

    You are a blessing.
