"Queen Esther"
Please read the book of Esther today in honor of Purim...
God bless you greatly...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What a book...reads like a fairy tale...did you notice that the name of God was never mentioned in the book? Although His name is not mentioned, you can see His hand in it. I hope you had the time to read it yesterday.
After I read the book I began thinking about Queen Esther's quiet dignity and a scripture from Isaiah came to me: "In returning and rest you shall be saved; in quietness and confidence shall be your strength." Isaiah 30:15
Apparently she was a beautiful women outwardly just as Queen Vashti was. The difference was that Esther had an inward quiet beauty.
My own reflection on this book is that it is inward beauty and the light of Christ that draw people.

"Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart."
The desire of my heart for what you will find to be a delightfully divine journey is that Christ the Lord breath His reviving breath upon your spirit, and that you realize not only is He who He says He is, but also that you see and accept that you are who He says you are as well. The two go hand in hand. The deeper things of God will come to a heart that is set on Him and who is dedicated to the following two things: time in His word and time spent in holy conversation (prayer) with Him. I believe His word, so I know that if you are here reading this now, it shall be so for you.

About Me
- His Delighted Servant
- My faith is what moves me , it is enjoyable, irresistable, lovely and warm with a sense of mystery. Its like a summer day with a gentle breeze blowing my hair, like a butterfly emerging from a cacoon, like a flower pushing its way through the soil of the earth, like a hidden treasure waiting to be found, yes it is my faith that defines me and I am completely content regardless of what goes on around me...My life with Yeshua is like a well written novel that I can not and will not put down... My greatest desire is to be used by Him to touch hearts without religiousity, denominationalism or legalism. One heart at a time. God Bless All from Shelli
