The
faith of Mordecai is evident and impressive that God would deliver the Jews
from Haman’s plan to destroy them, but it is the last part of the verse said to
Esther from which we might gain the most. “Who knoweth whether…” When we
consider being active in the kingdom of our Lord, it is often that we fail in
lack of action. We should take opportunities when they present themselves to do
good works, but we should also make opportunities by paying attention to what
is going on around us. The responsibility of spreading the gospel is upon each
Christian. We may need to do some self-examination and consider the phrase: “who
knoweth whether thou art come to the kingdom for such a time as this.”
