Wednesday, July 25th - Esther 6

Good Morning!

Just got back in from taking the puppy out and it was very pleasant.  I expected it to be hot and sticky since it is suppose to get to 104 degrees today, but it was warm with a gentle breeze.  I like it when I am surprised like that! :o)  Thank you God for a beautiful early morning!

Lisa's tweet: LMRMinistries: Esther 6 ~ Isn't it "interesting" that the king just "so happened" to read about Mordecai on this night?  God is always at work.  #behindthescenes

What a story!  Can you see God's Hand in the details?  Working behind the scenes as His plan comes together.  Mordecai was probably shocked when Haman came and robed him and led him through the streets on the king's horse.  After all, he knew what Haman thought of him and had told Esther about his plot to kill all the Jews.  Did he know that Haman was building the gallows to hang him?  I don't think so, but God did!

God is always at work!  Like Mordecai, we may not see it, but HE is always there and protecting us and taking care of us.  Many times I can look back on things that I have done or have happened and see God's Hand, but can honestly say I did not know He was doing that when it was happening.  As the saying goes - hind-sight is 20-20!

We pray and ask for God to lead and guide us through each day and with decisions, but then we are surprised when He does.  Trust Him!  God has your best interest in mind and He will deliver on His promise - "I will be with you forever!"
"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.  And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:6,7

May you face the day with confidence and know that God is with you!  Have a great day!
