Everytime I hear the song I can only Imagine, the verse touches the very depth of my soul goes something like this. Will I dance with you Jesus, will I look upon your face, will I sing hallelujah, will I fall upon my face? I can only imagine.
The photo shows God's handi work and it just seems to fit my thoughts. As I began my day my mind was troubled and my heart broken and I could only imagine.....
As I dropped into my easy chair to begin my last day of study on "Esther" for this week, He amazed me once more. First conviction, then a broken heart, then came my lesson for today.
Lord help me to "walk a fine line of moderation without making others feel judged" by me.
Question: "Why do you think the King chose Esther?" My answer. The way she was dressed may have caught his attention. A woman can dress in a manner that leaves nothing to the imagination or she can dress in a manner that is cute and modest. I believe Esther's beauty was more than skin deep because she lived a lifestyle that revealed the spirit that resided in her.
Ahauserus or Xerses had his choice of the fairest of women in the land. They had the choice to take with them and do whatever they felt would win the favor of the King and become his Queen.
Isn't it amazing that Esther chose to take only what was offered to her by the Kings servant and upon his advice? And from all accounts she walked in before him clothed in humility, submission, compassion and innocense and rang that Kings bell.
Oh if only women could realize that a man wants a whore for a night but a wife for a lifetime. If someway we could impress this to our young girls.
Any quotes are from Beth Moore's study of Esther.
