SUMMOND YOU BY NAME

Good morning!!!
Been reading Esther this morning got to chapter 2 verses 12 and the spirit spoke through the passages, I want to share with you my thoughts…

Esther 2:12-14,
12 During the year before each young woman's turn to go to King Ahasuerus, the harem regulation required her to receive beauty treatments with oil of myrrh for six months and then with perfumes and cosmetics for [another] six months. 13 When the young woman would go to the king, she was given whatever she requested to take with her from the harem to the palace. 14 She would go in the evening, and in the morning she would return to a second harem under the supervision of Shaashgaz, the king's eunuch in charge of the concubines. (A) She never went to the king again, unless he desired her and summoned her by name. (B)
This made me think allot, the women were given treatments of Oil and myrrh for 6 months and then another six months of perfumes and cosmetics.
The first thing I thought was (I hope none of them had sensitive skin) lol!
What a lot of stress and pressure to go through, being pampered that much for 1 yr in total , they were customed to do this to be fit for their ( king ) , then they would go to the (king) but only if he desired her and SUMMOND her by name.
Instantly this passage came to me Isaiah 43:1 do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine.
“When we come to the lord we come as we are, maybe we are full of heartache/heartbreak, hate? Loss of a loved one? Denial? Betryal? Lies? Hurt? Sadness? Brokeness?sexual immorillty? the list is never ending.
Our King JESUS Christ commands that when we come to him we should love him, with all our heart, soul, mind and strength.
He doesn’t make us drown in perfume for 2 yrs, or let us get rid of all our burdens before we come to worship him.
know that our king is greater!!!
He wants to carry our load, forgive us, love us for whom we are and change us through him while on the journey.
We don’t earn Christianity we choose it; we live to please the king of all kings through love that conquers all.
1 Corinthians 13:13 (New International Version, ©2011) 13 and now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love
