Esther
Esther enjoyed a life of privelege as the wife of the King of Persia but she was willing to sacrifice both her privelege and her very life to protect her fellow Israelites from genocide. God in His sovereignty put Esther in a place where she could play a role in His greater story of looking after His chosen people, a role that foreshadowed how Jesus would lay down His life on the cross to save His people. The details of our lives often seem insignificant but God has set them in place as well and if we are willing to surrender our lives over to God they can be woven into the greater story of God's plan to redeem and restore us and all of creation.
