“And who knows whether you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this?” Esther 4:14
God is the only one who has the power to turn our valley into a blessing. Never doubt that
He is able. For nothing is impossible for God.

“…for such a time as this.” Esther 4:14
When Mordecai sent a message to Esther about the great danger facing her
village, she could have simply tried to save her life or she could have kept quiet. But
She and Mordecai knew that God had brought them to that position for a purpose.
Esther was wise and made a plan, she didn't get caught up in fear or worry, she prayed and

no matter how difficult they may seem.” For nothing will be impossible with God.” Luke 1:37
Keep your eyes fixed on the Lord, He will never fail us; He is faithful to turn our pain
into a greater purpose in our own lives and also to those around us.
“You were created for such a time as this.” God will never fail us.
You may be setting the stage for great things to happen.
Call to me, and I will answer you, and I will tell you great and mighty things that you do not know. Jeremiah
