Welcome to Royal Daughter,
My name is Es Stewart, and I am a writer. I am also a Christian, a wife, and a mother. I have created this website to promote my writing, gain some feedback, and share with you. The stories on this website have all been written because of things I have seen, heard, experienced, and learned from God. I hope they speak truth and entertain you.
I also have a blog on this website, and two books. They book are called 52 Seeds for Fertile Soil and Who Made the Moon, Mummy? You can check them out and buy a copy at www.royaljourney.net.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Love Es.
The name of this website comes from Psalm 45, which I have published below, and which the first story, Royal Daughter is based on:
Psalm 45
Beautiful words stir my heart. I will recite a lovely poem about the king, for my tongue is like the pen of a skillful poet.
You are the most handsome of all. Gracious words stream from your lips. God himself has blessed you forever. Put on your sword, O mighty warrior! You are so glorious, so majestic! In your majesty, ride out to victory, defending truth, humility, and justice. Go forth to perform awe-inspiring deeds! Your arrows are sharp, piercing your emenies' hearts. The nations fall beneath your feet.
Your throne, O God, endures forever and ever. You rule with a scepter of justice. You love justice and hate evil. Therefore God, your God has anointed you, pouring out the oil of joy on you more than on anyone else. Myrrh, aloes, and cassia perfume your robes. In ivory palaces the music of strings entertains you. Kings' daughters are among your noble women. At your right side stands the queen, wearing jewelry of finest gold from Ophir!
Listen to me, O royal daughter, take to heart what I say. Forget your people and your family far away. For your royal husband delights in your beauty; honor him, for he is your lord. The princess of Tyre will shower you with gifts. The wealthy will beg your favor. The bride, a princess, looks glorious in her golden gown. In her beautiful robes, she is led to the king, accompanied by her bridesmaids. What a joyful and enthusiastic procession as they enter the king's palace!
Your sons will become kings like their father. You will make them rulers over many lands. I will bring honor to your name in every generation. Therefore, the nations will praise you forever and ever.
