Then Mordecai asked them to return this answer to Esther: "Don't think to yourself that you will escape in the king's house any more than all the Jews. For if you remain silent now, then relief and deliverance will come to the Jews from another place, but you and your father's house will perish. Who... -
In the same hour, the fingers of a man's hand came out and wrote near the lamp stand on the plaster of the wall of the king's palace. The king saw the part of the hand that wrote. Then the king's face was changed in him, and his thoughts troubled him; and the joints of his thighs were loosened, and ...

For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says Yahweh, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope in your latter end. You shall call on me, and you shall go and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You shall seek me, and find me, when you shall search for me with all your heart. Jeremiah 29:11 WEB
Have you ever gone into your prayer room thinking that you were right in step with the Lord, but came out in tears after seeing just how far off base you really were? I have, more than once. I call it Cruise Control.
When things begin to go smoothly in your life, everything is working like it should, your plans are coming together and your prayers have been answered, it becomes easy to grow complacent. To just drift and let the current carry you along. Of course you still pray, you still go through the motions, but your whole heart is not in it, and your mind is always somewhere else. As surely as you breathe, you eventually drift off course, as a car would drift off the road if you stop steering it. The sooner that you correct it, the better.
God is always welcoming us into His loving arms. He wants to be a part of our life and He is just a prayer away. So make some time for Him today. Ask the Lord to make what is important to Him, important to you. Intentionally seek out the Lord's presence as if you mean it. There is a great reward waiting for those that do. He promised that we would seek Him and find Him, when we search Him with all of our heart.
Prayer: Heavenly Father I seek You today. Please lead me into all that You have for me. Help me to see through Your eyes and make what is important to You, important to me. In the name of Jesus Christ I pray.

Amen and Amen and Amen! Jeremiah 29:11 has a very deep meaning for me!!! It was in the late 70's, we had been married for a few years, our marriage was heading into total disaster and i was ready to give up. I thought it was just by chance, when I opened the Hl. Bible and landed on Jeremiah 29:11 ...., and I started reading, studying and searching! About that time an insurance sales man came to the door, he didn't sell an insurance policy, but instead he started to witness to me, invited me and my husband to come to church, and I was saved shortly after that. The Lord works in mysterious ways, especially, when we get serious! Praise His holy Name!
Lord help me not to depart from your ways.
Amen
