[Ohio-Communities-of-Faith] God's Heart by Max Lucado

[Maggie Stringer]

“Relief and deliverance will arise for the Jews” (Esther 4:14). Mordecai
said those words. Though a holocaust had been declared, Mordecai changed
from desperate wailing to issuing this bold statement. What happened? Well
it dawned on Mordecai that the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob was alive
and well and undefeated in battle. God had not forgotten his role as a
covenant keeper. God’s heart was still attached to his people—a remnant
living in exile in Persia. The Jews had no king, no temple, no priesthood,
no sacrifices. No matter. God is to problems what a hurricane is to a
mosquito – no match. Mordecai got this. Do you? Yes, the journey ahead
includes deep waters. But the scripture promises, “When you pass through
the waters, I will be with you…” (Isaiah 43:2).
