TRUSTWORTHINESS
TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 15
Esther 4:9-12
Colossians 3:22-24
"… for ye serve
the Lord Christ."
TRUSTWORTHINESS
Hatach returned to the palace and informed Esther what Mordecai had said to him. And Esther once again sent Hatach back to tell Mordecai her predicament in agreeing to the latter’s charge for her to see and plead with the king. Hatach relayed the message from Esther about the well-known fact that no man or woman could enter the inner court of the palace uninvited. And unless the king extended his sceptre to the person, he would be put to death. And Esther told Mordecai through Hatach that the king had not called her to him for thirty days already. Hatach faithfully went back and forth at Esther’s instructions, passing Esther’s words on to Mordecai.
Hatach was not only faithful in doing Esther’s bidding, he was trustworthy and loyal as well. With the king’s edict to wipe out Esther’s race, which would include her as well, Hatach was taking a big risk. He could have gone to the king, or gossiped about Esther being a Jew. Hatach could also have leaked information about what transpired between Mordecai and Esther. But he did not. He kept things confidential while diligently and truthfully doing and speaking as instructed by Esther as well as Mordecai. Both of them depended upon Hatach.
Devoted, trustworthy, and responsible workers are difficult to find these days. Christians must bear a good testimony at home, school, work, and among friends. We should be reliable, diligent, and unfailing in our duties. We must also know how to handle sensitive information when entrusted with it. Do people around you see you as such a person whom they can rely on to handle things? Have you been faithful and consistent in tasks assigned to you by your parents, teachers or bosses? We bring glory to God for being such a trustworthy person to others around us.
THOUGHT: Do people readily entrust me with tasks?
PRAYER: Lord, help me to be a trustworthy person for Thy Glory.
