Have you ever found yourself in a difficult situation? One where you had to speak up, even though you really didn’t want to?

Esther did. She had to find the courage to speak up and trust that maybe she actually was exactly where she needed to be, when she needed to be there.

It didn’t come without a lot of fasting and prayer. She had a whole community of people who were prayer for her and fasting with her to help with what she needed to do.

Sometimes we’re the Esther, and sometimes (more often) we’re a member of the community, fasting and praying that our leaders will be able to do what God needs them to do.

As always, the “Come, Follow Me” checklist will get us through the main part of the content for this week. The “Come, There’s More” list can help us get through the rest.
