    Christian perspective on Purim. Serving God sometimes means that must we risk our own security. God has a purpose for the situations in which he places us, even if we don’t see it. Trust that God is in control and he has a plan for us, even when it seems things are bad.

“If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.”
- 1 Corinthians 13:1-3
