Do Something About That . Whatever that is!

One key to discovering your destiny is to identify the needs that stir your heart. What is it that upsets you? What causes you to think, "Somebody ought to do something about that"? Whatever it is, that is the key to your destiny. It bothers you so much that it moves you to action. For example, Esther's servant tells her that her uncle, Mordecai, is publicly mourning because of Haman's plot (and the king's decree) to kill all the Jews. When she hears what Mordecai is doing, it deeply disturbs her. She probably thinks that a lot of people will die unless she does something. Does anything disturb you or is your life so insulated that nothing makes you say, "Somebody ought to do something about that"? Here is a homework assignment: Make a list of the needs you see that disturb you. Then pray and ask God to show you ways you can use your gifts to make a difference.

“So Esther’s maids and eunuchs came and told her, and the queen was deeply distressed. Then she sent garments to clothe Mordecai and take his sackcloth away from him, but he would not accept them.”

‭‭Esther‬ ‭4:4‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
