Serving God Where You Are

There are times when serving God involves walking by faith, risk and sacrifice. Jesus never said being a disciple was easy or problem free. Jesus did promise that he would always be with those who know him as Savior and Lord. The book of Esther pulls back the curtain on a critical moment in the lives of the Jewish people. While Esther doesn’t mention God you see him at work behind the scenes. Esther is faced with keeping silent or going to the king on behalf of the Jewish people. After fasting and prayer she approaches the king.

In our lives there are moments when God asks us to step out in faith, take risks, in order to serve Him. How will you respond to God in those moments? Esther said “yes” to God and as a result her people were spared. Your “yes” to God will bear fruit that you may not even consider. Your faithfulness to God brings results you could not even imagine.

It’s your move. How will you respond to God?
