When I Wept With Ester

Posted by aurelia on 6 November, 2009

    This was part of Pastor Ernie’s message at the church this afternoon.  I am a mother too, and it broke my heart seeing a mother like Ester bury her children. Like the narrator, I too wept with Ester. I pray that the Lord will comfort Ester and her family, and that they may see God’s greatness in the midst of all her trials. To Nathan: you are now in a place much, much better than Jollibee. Thank you so much Ate Diane and Kuya Willy for this heartwarming story. May God bless you.
