And the same Mordechai who fights against the concept of Seudas Achashveirosh, is constantly encouraging Esther not to reveal her background, so Achashverosh shouldn’t appreciate her royal lineage (she was a descendant of Shaul HaMelech). When we try and do the best we can to overcome our impossible and grave spiritual situation, every inch and every tiny effort to improve and to run away from evil is a: תז כוּ ג דוֹל לַ ש מ יִּ םד עַ phenomenal Zechus, and can save Klal Yisroel.
“Although I’m hopelessly in an unfortunate Ruchaniyus situation, I still try my best to at least improve a drop, and I value every tiny good Ratzon to lead a pure life.” Mordechai was also involved in doing his best. Although Esther appeared to be lost to the wicked gentile world, Mordechai kept visiting and asking about her. And these tiny and seemingly unimportant gestures caused him to hear about the plot to kill the king (by: בִּ גְּ תָ ןַ וָת ר ש), and he was Zoche to save the whole Klal Yisroel. Similarly, we have Miriam following the “lost case” of Moshe floating down the Nile River. And in the end, she saved him and the whole Klal Yisroel.
Our greatest Yeshuos; the Purim and Pesach stories, started off with such insignificant involvement in a Matzav of Yi'ush. How important it is for us to keep trying and pushing, davening, and having Bitachon in all those “lost cases” of our lives. There are many different ways of being M’kadesh Shem Shamayim, and they may be extreme opposites, like Sara and Esther. A Yid has to value his own struggles, and even though they may seem unimportant, or not so successful, in Shamayim they could be equal to the most outstanding Inyanim.
