Life isn’t always what we hope for. I recently finished working on a new theatrical adaptation of The Book of Esther, which is full of unexpected twists and turns. Yet it shows how God continues to use and bless His people for His good purpose even when things don't go as expected. While this life may not be what you hoped for right now, there is a new life waiting . . . something MORE than you could ever hope for; “more than you could ask or imagine.” Be reminded that in Christ, “you have been born again, but not to a life that will quickly end. Your new life will last forever because it comes from the eternal, living word of God” (1 Peter 1:23, NLT).
