Sometimes life is a little less princess-like and a lot more hardships than we expected. Reality hits hard and our “for such a time as this” dreams begin to fade. We are tempted to question, Will my “for such a time as this” moment ever come? Does God have a special plan for me?
But what if our “for such a time as this” moment is right now—right here? Instead of doubting and wondering, why don’t we believe that this is part of God’s plan? Which will lead us to ask the right questions like, what do I need to do so that I do not waste this moment? What can I learn from Queen Esther?
Esther followed God’s direction. Patiently waiting for the right moment, God opened the King’s heart to her plight which resulted in his favor bestowed upon Esther, Mordecai, and the Jewish people. Whatever our circumstances, we can wake up each day knowing our “for such a time as this” is right now—right here. We can trust the King of kings to guide us as we say “yes” in obedience. When we do, we will discover that even in the midst of our hardships, and everything in between, God has a plan!!!
