SF - The Inner Message of Purim

After the churbon (destruction of the Temple), the Jewish People assumed that HaShem had given up on them. This feeling lead to widespread despair. In order to counter this perspective, HaShem chose Esther -- an orphan -- to save Klal Yisrael. Can an orphan become a queen and a redeemer? The fact that Esther rose to such greatness, proved that HaShem helps those who lack parents. So too, although it might seem like HaShem is no longer on our side, HaShem is always there to save us!

Klal Yisrael has an eternal relationship with HaShem, our Heavenly Father. He will never abandon us. Even if we "fall," we are never "out." Just the orphaned Esther delivered us, so too, HaShem will absolutely redeem Klal Yisrael!

Envision Esther, orphaned from her parents. See her rise from obscurity to be become a Prophetess, a queen and the heroine of Klal Yisrael! Internalize this message and revitalize your faith and trust that HaShem loves Klal Yisrael -- and will send us a miraculous redemption, in the blink of an eye!

(Based on the Midrash Rabah Esther)
