While the Esther Siege in India was in November and I am just NOW updating on it, I still feel it important to share.
Realizing these girls were in school throughout the day and on normal days wouldn't be able to have 48 hours of non-stop praise and worship I felt the Lord saying to teach them about doing an 8-hour Esther Siege. One they can do on the weekend. This group of girls came in while was worshiping to my ipod and looked at me strangely. You see, we can worship through various means, in India these girls have their hearts and voices only...something the Lord cherishes deeply. As I turned my ipod off, and let Winnifred lead us in worship with her guitar and the very few chords she knew (and used for many worship songs)...I was literally brought to tears. We get so concerned with worship sounding "right" and being perfect...I was brought all the way to India to listen to perfectly "imperfect" worship from the very hungry hearts of these few girls. I wept as I was so honored to listen to their voices surely bring the Lord God to tears and be so strongly in their midst. These girls are hand-chosen by the Lord to bring tears to His eyes, their hearts are pure and hungry to see God and just as the king asked Esther, "up to half the kingdom, what is your request?" these girls surely have the attention of the Lord and all they have to do is ask.
