Such a time as this!


Reading in Esther this morning. Here's the short story: The Jews are in trouble (death to all Jews has been declared) and Esther being the Queen and a Jewish woman is in a position to try to change the Kings mind but certain laws forbid her to just approach the king whenever she wants. Mordecai, her uncle, says to her "Who knows whether you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this?"

Wow! That stopped me in my tracks! What if this is your time to make a difference? What if the big thing you are struggling with, the thing that feels like it could be the death of you, what if... just what if your were put in that situation to make a difference! For such a time as this! 

I know God weaves our life in a way for us to reach others and fulfill our purpose and he uses the struggles and the hard times too! Next time you are knee deep one of life's issues ask yourself, was I brought for such a time as this? Did the Lord strategically place me here with purpose? Be blessed today friends 💗

Give me Jesus...

In the morning when I rise give me Jesus... Been up for a while now taking care of my sick boy. Strep is really hitting him hard, poor guy keeps having really strong body aches and just can't get comfy. Reading my bible. Today I start Esther with our Churches reading plan as well as winding down in the book of Acts. I can't say enough about how reading the Word daily has changed my life. Gods word infiltrates my heart and gives me strength, hope and courage to face anything the enemy throws my way. In the morning when I rise give me Jesus... #bible #biblestudy #whenirisegivemejesus #hope #love #strength #dailybiblereading #fortheloveofGod
