Esther was definitely in the right place at the right time, but she didn't get there on her own. God's loving, guiding hand was on her life. Because she was a willing instrument, God could work powerfully through her.

You, too, can be like Esther, and become a woman of beauty and strength by ...

• Cultivating an abiding trust in God
• Waiting patiently and seeking wise counsel
• Preparing for and persisting in the assignments God gives

As you follow the leading of God's hand, you'll see God guiding and working through you ... giving you a special beauty and strength that touches everyone around you!
