*A thought*:
When you are next tempted to think that God is not working because He does not show Himself to you, read again the story of Esther and realise that He is a God who often works behind the scenes. After all, as this book so wonderfully shows, history is really His-story.
*Week #38 Memory Verse*:
Matthew 7:7-8
"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to
you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened"
