YouTube video: ‘The Clocktower’ - Queen Esther / sacrificial love

It is not easy to be an important cog in God's big wheel

Watching the short video The Clocktower, I was reminded of Queen Esther, whose sacrificial love meant that she had to let go of normal life to become an important cog in God's big wheel. She had to stay in her place high up in her royal tower, so God could save his people through her.
