以賽亞12章告訴我們：耶和華的子民將把注意力集中在耶和華的身上，並感謝祂為他們所做的一切。他們也會承認上帝對他們的怒氣是應該的。但是他們仍然會感謝上帝抑制了祂的憤怒並透過祂的憐憫來安慰他們。

Continuing our series on Esther: although Haman, the mastermind behind the plot to kill the Jews has died, the edict still stands. While God solved the problem of sin through Jesus, what principles from the book of Esther should we internalize to finish well while living in this fallen world? There are two important truths about life that we should always remember.

当犹太人在面对灭族的危机中，神却在祂自己的时候转变一切；

當猶太人在面對滅族的危機中，神卻在祂自己的時候轉變一切；

Today, we live in dark, difficult and dangerous times. In such situations we sometimes ask ourselves, “Where is God? Where is God when it seems like He cannot be found?”

以色列百姓所遭遇的危机是出于上帝爱的管教，因此，上帝的作为在整个危机的起始结果中都能看到，因此百姓要用悔改来回应上帝。

生命中縱然有時會有許多的巧合，但掌管環境時機的仍然是在 神的手中

The book of Esther is a very peculiar book to be included in our Holy Scriptures. Not once throughout the whole book does it mention God or any of His names- and yet, despite the absence of His Name you can’t help but feel His presence throughout the whole story. Everything seems to be falling in the right place at the right time, including the rise of queen Esther. Is it merely a coincidence? Or perhaps providence? Let us find out.

当灭族阴云从书珊城向波斯全境蔓延时，末底改和以斯帖将如何力挽狂澜呢？在未曾蒙召，擅自觐见君王将要被赐死的法规面前，以斯帖又是如何做出生死选择呢？

在這個時代，我們身边邊發生了很多負面的事情。無論是戰爭和戰爭的風聲，自然災害接踵而至，經濟不穩定，和平與秩序受到威脅等等。聽到所有的壞消息。我們該怎麼辦？
