2 Kings 4 - Elisha is Busy

Sorry... I'm running late again today!  Spent the night out at Witz' Marina and BTC has not yet set up their wi-fi.  Hopefully, it will be soon so I can stay out there more often, wake up and go straight to work :)

Today we read about a few miracles.  Through Elisha, God provides for the widow of one of the sons of the prophets; the Shunammite woman who has been barren gives birth to a son; that same son dies and is brought back to life; and the poisonous stew that the sons of the prophets are about to eat, is made clean.  All of this in one chapter! 

God uses Elisha to bless those in need.  He uses us to bless and provide for those in need, as well.  There are no prophets today, there are no miracles today, I believe, because we don't expect them; won't receive them; and when do they appear in spite of our hard-heartedness, we don't recognize them.

May God open our ears, our eyes, and our hearts to a greater understanding of his gifts to those who love and trust in Him.
