Esther 9:18 "But the Jews that were at Shushan assembled together on the thirteenth day thereof, and on the fourteenth thereof; and on the fifteenth day of the same they rested, and made it a day of feasting and gladness"

Esther and the Jewish people were spared and given a great victory over their enemy Haman.
They responded with a yearly festival called Purim in which they celebrated God's power and deliverance.

Today let each of us have our own "Purim".

Let us take time to rejoice over the ways God has worked in our individual lives and families.

May this rejoicing be seen by our actions and shared by our words.
