Pageant Queen with a Purpose, #23

Still a problem. While we saw yesterday that the king addressed the problem with Haman, Esther still has a problem that she needs to bring before the king. Read Esther 8:1-3.

On that day King Ahasuerus gave the house of Haman, the enemy of the Jews, to Queen Esther; and Mordecai came before the king, for Esther had disclosed what he was to her. The king took off his signet ring which he had taken away from Haman, and gave it to Mordecai. And Esther set Mordecai over the house of Haman. Then Esther spoke again to the king, fell at his feet, wept and implored him to avert the evil scheme of Haman the Agagite and his plot which he had devised against the Jews.
Esther 8:1‭-‬3 NASB1995

Haman is gone, but his plan is still fully intact and moving forward. What does Esther do? She goes back to the king who addressed the problem. She shares with him the issue and concern with full confidence this time because she know that he helped her before, so he will help he now.

We can trust in God. As we put our trust in him, we see Him be faithful and we will place more of our trust in him. God is always faithful and if we will try him, we will see and experience that.

What area of pur life do we need to test and try the Lord in? What areas of our life do we need to give control over to him and allow him to solve? He is able, if we will place our trust in Him
