Note: Technical difficulties prevented the service from being live streamed in its entirety. This message was recorded by our pastor later that same day to preserve the continuity of the online message series.
Sometimes we wish we were invisible, like when we seem to be the only one standing up (hopefully for what's right in God's eyes . . .) Taking a stand may include deciding and charting a course that is unpopular and leaves you feeling like you are all alone . . . but you're not! When Esther faced her great challenge, she got her 'group on', commanding that all the Jews in the city pray and fast for her. Esther reached out to others in her time of need and so should you and me. Do or do not take the next step on your journey of faith but there is no 'try!' And if and when you do take that step, you will not be alone!
Scripture: Psalm 139:7; Romans 8:28 RSV; Esther 4:15-17, 5:1-14; Luke 9:51
