As the festive sounds of Purim fill the air, we are drawn
back to the timeless story of Esther, a tale woven with courage, faith, and
divine victory. In the Book of Esther, we see God’s hand at work, turning the
schemes of the wicked into a celebration of life for His people. Haman’s plot
to destroy the Jews was thwarted not by might or power but by the quiet
bravery of Esther and the steadfast wisdom of Mordecai, guided by the unseen
hand of the Lord.
Purim is a season to rejoice in God’s deliverance, a
reminder that even in the darkest moments, His light prevails. Scripture tells
us, “The Lord is near to all who call on Him” (Psalm 145:18), and in Esther’s
story, we see this truth unfold. This holiday calls us to feast, to share
gifts, and to lift our voices in gratitude—because our God turns mourning into
dancing (Psalm 30:11). So, bake your hamantaschen, find a costume, and let
your heart be glad. A happy Purim is not just a tradition; it is a testimony to
the One who saves.
