Sometimes, we come to realize what kind of people we are in moments of trial and this can lead us to defining moments in our lives, for better or worse. This Sunday, we will see Queen Esther’s defining moment as she decides what she will do in the face of dire circumstances and her remarkable act of courage and faith. This response to trial stems from confidence in her faithful, covenant-keeping God. Like Esther, we too are reminded of the confidence we can have in our God because of His continued faithfulness.
