Esther 2
It is now in the second chapter that the heroine of our book walks on the stage. She enters into the narrative here and God begins to move in a very special way in her life.

You never know what God is doing in your life. I will assure you that wherever you are and whatever the circumstances of your life, God is preparing you and getting you ready for something he has in plan, something He wants to do in your heart and in your life.
Esther is one of the great heroines in the Bible.

She takes her place with the great women of the Bible. She's right along there with Ruth and Mary and Jochebed and Hannah. She is down in sacred history as one of the great women of God in all of the Bible.
