Esther 2:12-18 – http://ow.ly/1ydUcy

While looking for a new queen, King Ahasuerus had his own “American Idol” contest. Virgins from all different places were given 12 months to prepare for this “one night with the king” private performance.

After having gone through much booty, the contest ended when the King spent the night with a beautiful woman named Esther. He done fell in love with her so he made her his new queen.

While putting the crown on Esther’s head, this Drake song was playing in the King’s mind:

“I say you the you the best, You the you the best, You the you the best, You the you the best, You the best I ever had, Best I ever had, Best I ever had, Best I ever had…”

Reflection:
It is very easy to let our physical urges direct our decisions. Some of us have done things in “the name of love” when love was no where in the picture. We know it was just straight booty that swayed us.
Some of us have even gloried in the people we have “had”, like we were conquerors. Were we really that shallow? I will acknowledge I was there at one point in my life. The question is are you still there?
