“The churches of Christ salute you.” – Romans 16:16

🕊 SERMON SUMMARY

Title: For Such a Time as This
Text: Esther 4:10–16

Have you ever wondered why you are where you are right now?
In Esther 4:10–16, Esther faces a defining choice—remain silent or step forward in faith. Mordecai reminds her:

“Who knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this?”

God’s placement is intentional. Like Esther, we may feel fearful or unqualified, but God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things through obedience and faith. When Esther said, “If I perish, I perish,” she chose courage over comfort, faith over fear.
You are not an accident—step into your moment for such a time as this.


LIFE STRUGGLES (May 17, 2009)

A man once watched an emperor moth struggling to emerge from its cocoon. Wanting to help, he cut the cocoon open—but the moth emerged weak, with swollen body and shriveled wings, unable to fly.
The struggle was necessary for the moth’s strength and freedom.

Lesson: Without struggles, we would never grow strong.
Give every opportunity a chance, leave no room for regrets, and remember—there is power in the struggle.
