HE Speaks: Esther's story
/
Esther is a precious friend that I have gotten to know in the last several months!
I am so so thankful she shared her heart with me so I could share it with you.
I LOVED reading it myself and know you will too.
I pray that her heart will be encouraging to you today, and will be a reminder that God loves to be in conversation with you, and He loves to bring you into a place of peace with Him.
