The customs of Purim exist because of God’s grace. What should have been remembered as a day of sorrow because of evil events planned by an enemy of the Jews was turned into joy.

The word Purim, which means “lots,” is plural for the Hebrew word Pur. Esther 3:7 reads…

“In the first month, which is the month of Nisan, in the twelfth year of King Ahasuerus, they cast Pur (that is, the lot), before Haman to determine the day and the month, until it fell on the twelfth month, which is the month of Adar.”

But God had different plans, proving Proverbs 16:33, “The lot is cast into the lap, but it's every decision, is from the Lord.”

Haman’s plans of destroying the Jewish people would not prevail because it did not align with God’s plan. Rather God’s plan was to turn a day planned for sorrow into a festival of joy.

Takeaway: The customs of Purim exist because sorrow was turned into joy!
