Esther 10

Short chapter today. As we close the Book of Esther we find it being more about Modechi than Esther herself. Like Joseph, Mordechi would rise to second in the kingdom. Like Joseph, Mordechi was just a guy doing the Lord's will. He was never seeking this fame and glory, he simply was seeking the good of his people. It is interesting that those who seek glory and fame are often rendered useless in their pursuit for glory and fame. Those who seek the Lord, they live blessed lives and through their dedication are sometimes given these things. Think about modern day Mordechi's. There are plenty of men out there who never seeked fame, but through their dedication to the Lord have been granted fame. Despite this, their main focus continue to be Jesus day in and day out.
