Young people today can likewise bring joy to the hearts of their parents and guardians. When out of their parent's sight even surrounded by people who are shallow, immoral, or vicious-they can resist bad influences and stick to the standards that they know are right. When they do so like Esther, they make the heart of their heavenly Father rejoice. - Read PROVERBS 27:11.
When the time came for Esther to be presented to the king, she was given the liberty to select any items that she thought she might need, perhaps to beautify herself further. Modestly, though, she asked for nothing beyond what Hegai mentioned to her. (Esther 2:15) She probably realized that beauty alone would not win the king's heart; a modest and humble spirit would prove a far rarer commodity in that court. Was she right?
