Purim

Purim is my favorite of all the Jewish holidays because it celebrates my favorite woman of the Old Testament: Esther. Esther (Hadassah) chose obedience over safety and God used her to save a nation. Would that we all had her spirit so that we can be used "for such a time as this."

Hi Stephanie,
Found you via CPA. I often like to explore the blogs I see there. We are American missionaries living in Ukraine (almost 20 yrs) and we have a heart for the Jewish (Russian speaking) people.
Following your blog now. Hope you'll come by and follow mine. Helps me to remember to come back here.
