In Stars, Laura is starting a study of Esther. I think she could teach a class on Esther. It is one of her favorite bible stories. She has read it many times. She has watched several different animated versions. ( She loves the veggie tales version. It makes her laugh.) And yet this is a story of a real woman of God. The lessons in the story are numerous. God puts people where he needs them for his purposes. We are all his children, royalty by adoption.
Tonight the Stars group made crowns while listening to the beginning of the Esther story. The girls had to tell how they thought Esther felt to meet King Xerxes, or even to be taken away from her family to live with a bunch of other women. We wondered about the kind of beauty treatments Esther and the other women would have received. Next week we will learn more about this wonderful story.
