J Warner’s Take-Away Wisdom that leads to action today: 

Ask yourself – am I taking what I hear in sermons, podcasts, videos, and shows and treating it as entertainment or am I using it to consider issues and actions in my life and in the lives of those around me  - am I living differently because of what I have encountered? In some one way, live differently today because of Godly wisdom.

The Book of Esther never mentions God by name but is filled with descriptions of how God delivers opportunity after opportunity in the lives of his people.

Discussion with Sheila (our Shofar Lady)

 10 ways to Stop Missing Opportunities from God

1. Realize that God is continually presenting you with opportunities.
2. Stop being afraid of God’s opportunities
3. Purposefully seek to identify God inspired opportunities.
4. When you see an opportunity, recognize it is from God
5. Don’t let life’s distractions blind you to God’s opportunities – Paul’s gas station story
6. Don’t postpone dealing with God’s opportunity until sometime later.
7. Don’t deal with the opportunity in just your own power and authority and love.
8. Avoid having unanswered opportunities
9. Fulfill prerequisites to the next opportunity God has for you
10. Realize how sowing, cultivating, growing all reside within the opportunities God offers you.

Take-Away Wisdom that leads to action today: 

God has already placed an opportunity right in front of you to recognize and act on today.
