Message Summary

Many people want certainty before trying something new. But most of the time, we don’t need the whole plan to take a next step. Often, while we’re waiting for clarity, God’s waiting for trust. We can be faithful to take a next step, even in the unknown.

Key Scripture

[Mordecai] sent back this answer: “Do not think that because you are in the king’s house you alone of all the Jews will escape. … but you and your father’s family will perish. And who knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this?”
Esther 4:13-14 NIV
