Today's Favorite Verse: Esther 6:1
"On that night could not the king sleep, and he commanded to bring the book of records of the chronicles; and they were read before the king."
I love how the Lord will bring to people's remembrance situations or understanding at exactly the right time. The king finds that nothing had been done to reward Mordecai for saving his life. Then the king speaks to Haman (who had come with the desire to kill Mordecai) and asks what should be done to the man he delighteth to honor. Haman was arrogant enough to think the king spoke to honor him, and had no idea he was speaking of Mordecia. What Haman says should be done is exactly what the king has Haman do for Mordecai. All of this is setting the stage for Esther to soon reveal herself a Jew and to save them. I think about how perfect the timing of the Lord is.
