Among all the virgins, Esther found favor and grace in King Ahasuerus’s eyes. Instead of Vashti, he made her his queen. She was crowned queen of 127 nations.
We can learn from Esther’s virtues that it is always right to do the right thing, even when the circumstances appear to be opposite. Even though she felt God’s absence, she did not give up and clung to God for victory. She fasted and poured her heart to God.
A moral to learn from Esther’s story is:
“Waiting period may be difficult but pursuing God to the fullest at those times will give you the victory”
