revearsal of destiny

I love how God fits things together and weaves our lives. Nothing right now seems coincidental or ordinary.
When I was trying to decide months ago on what to teach in India I wanted to teach from1 john 1:1-2 but I felt the Lord telling me no I want you to teach from the book of Esther. So when the Bible study group I am part of in Hattiesburg told me we were doing Beth Moores Esther I was thrilled .
To make a long story short.....today I finished the last homework lesson in her Esther workbook. Near the end of that lesson she shows us in Acts 2 how the new believers were from the areas of Susa....the Jews of Esthers land. And then over in the margin she pulls a verse to connect it all 1 Jn 1 :1-2. You would have to read the whole lesson to understand and I dont have time right now to go through it with you. But I just had to stop and cry. I love my savior!!!

She asked a question : What have you savored most about our nine week journey?
I wrote, " God has reversed our destiny on the cross.!! Oh the marvelous ways of God our savior. Who takes the UNLIKELY and uses them for His glory. How marvelous is His name in all the earth!"
