A Nutshell

Bill spoke today: am Esther 4; pm Romans 8. Key verses for me:
.

*****

Esther 4:14 (easily one of my all-time favourites)

.

"For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews

will arise from another place, but you and your father's family will perish.

And who knows but that you have come to royal position

for such a time as this?"

.

*****

Romans 8:28

.

"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those

who love him, who have been called according to his purpose"

.

Those of you who know me well will realise why today has been an encouraging day for me, sermon wise. Those of you who aren't that privileged (?!) will either have to try and work it out, or ask me... the explanation will be long though, so only ask if you really want to know...!

.

Either way, those verses are rich with meaning for all of us, so give them some prayerful thought for yourself.
