Pray this Lazaroo with no-holds-barred surrender:
“…he set a royal crown on her head and made her queen instead of Vashti.”
(Esther 2:17)
Interesting, Jesus.
You needed Esther on the throne to save Your people.
Vashti had to go.
You could have killed Vashti.
Instead, You let her take a moral stand
which she took and lost her throne
while keeping her dignity.
Was Vashti grateful?
Probably no more than I am when You do me a kindness
and I, heartbroken, view it as punishment.
