I can't imagine how hard Esther's heart must have been pumping while she was getting ready to ask the king to save her people. In her position, that would have been a really tough ask. I remember reading earlier that she was so nervous about it, that she said she knew she would probably be killed for making this request. She definitely showed great faith that God would take care of her.
This is a good lesson in making sure we are staying on mission for God, even when its really difficult. Esther did that and it payed off for her.
I love the story here. It almost feels like a nursury rhyme doesn't it? I can see the little finger puppets in the book.......the dark one is Mordecai.........bbbbooooooo! You have the coniving bad guy....the beautiful woman from the wrong side of the tracks....and a king who is entranced by a beautiful face.
