Shepherd to Sheep
Ephesians 5:25
"Husbands love your wives, just as also Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her;"
We saw last time in Esther 1:12, "But queen Vashti refused to come.....Then the king became very angry and his wrath burned within him."
The whim of the king was refused, and we see his anger began to burn within him. Whether it was I said, you said, she said or he said, we have the makings of a matter that would blow up. We know that the story of Esther was key to the saving of the Jews, and this matter with the king and queen was allowed to happen, yet too often it's a little thing that escalates in the lives of ordinary people. Yes, we know wives are to submit to their husbands, yet husband's ought to take the higher road and initiate a peaceful resolution.
