Scripture References:

• Esther 4:12-16

Devotional Reflection:

Hey, Fabulous Mom! Ready to channel your inner queen?

Today’s spotlight is on Esther—our girl who went from a regular gal to a royal leader in a big, dramatic way! Esther’s story is like a masterclass in navigating leadership and purpose with grace and bravery.

Imagine Esther’s life: she’s just a young woman who ends up being crowned queen. Sounds like a fairy tale, right? But her true moment of heroism came when she had to step up, risk everything, and use her position to save her people. Esther didn’t just wear the crown; she used her influence to make a real difference.

Esther’s story reminds us that even in the midst of our busy, sometimes chaotic lives, we all have a role to play. Whether you’re leading at work, in your home, or in your community, you have the power to use your position and influence for good.

Mom Circle Tips for You:

• Harness Your Strengths: Use the skills and resources you have right at home to tackle challenges. Your unique abilities are your superpowers.
• Embrace Your Role: Whether you’re handling household tasks or juggling schedules, remember that your contributions are valuable and impactful.
• Be Bold in Your Everyday: Don’t underestimate the power of your actions. Even small, seemingly simple acts of courage can lead to great victories for your family.

Prayer:

Dear God,

Help me to embrace my role with confidence and to use my position and influence for good. Give me the strength to speak up when needed and the wisdom to lead with both grace and compassion. Guide me in balancing my responsibilities with a heart full of purpose.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.
