3 Mordecai the Jew ranked second in command to King Xerxes. He was popular among the Jews and greatly respected by them. He worked hard for the good of his people; he cared for the peace and prosperity of his race.
Reflecting on the book of Esther and your comment from an earlier chapter. God can do great things through people who aren't. Mordecai and Esther both appear to be pretty ordinary and unassuming but their impact was far from ordinary. Good lesson.

today was a real shorty!
ReplyDeleteI needed that today. You said you're holding on by a thread.....I can relate.
Its been making me a little unsettled lately. Here's my thoughts; when I'm this busy, is there really time for me to hear God's quiet voice?
I know the answer......
after posting today I read about a 11yr old boy from our church dealing with the possible return of lukemia, I think of Rich and kids. Holding on by a thread is a bit of an overstatement on my part.
