"For
a full 180 days, King Xerxes displayed the vast wealth of his kingdom
and the splendour and glory of his majesty" (Esther 1:4).
As
I was reading these words about King Xerxes, I thought about another
king, a very different king, a much better king - King Jesus. What did
Jesus say about His Kingdom? This is what He said - "My Kingdom is not
of this world... My Kingdom is from another place" (John 18:36). We read
about Xerxes. We read about Jesus. We must make our choice. What is
most important to us - this world or the world towards which God is
calling us, the world of His glory?
