Strong minded-women of ancient history

Esther

“a woman of clear judgment, of magnificent self-control and capable of the noblest self-sacrifice.”

From her character we learn—

To seek divine guidance in times of difficulty (Esther 4:15-17).

 To obtain a knowledge of human nature, so that we may know how to take advantage of any circumstances which may favor our cause if it be a proper one.

 When there is a necessity, to be ready to renounce self and exert ourselves for the good of others.

 To value and seek the cooperation of fellow-believers.
