I have been reading 1st and 2nd Kings in my quiet times lately. I am not sure why in general , or really why at this time in life? I have never really read these books in the bible from start to finish. Sometimes the difficulties, twist, turns and changes in life and in society confuse me. I desire to search for truth, meaning, and explanation, and sometimes find myself struggling to understand. However, GOD has a plan for me and my life, and HE understands it. I sense HIM saying to me, "turn it over to ME". Unfortunately, I do not always put HIS wisdom at the top-of-mind. Sadly, when I come to my senses I realize that I am wasting my time (yet again) while dealing with my frustrations. HE is letting me know that there are problems, frustrations, and troubles in life that are mightier than my ability to understand or to solve them.

I must be willing to turn (give) it over to HIM!
2Kings 4
ReplyDelete-GOD multiples the widow's poverty to plenty
GOD multiples 20 loaves of bread to feed 100 men
1Kings 17
Delete-GOD feeds Elijah and a widow out of poverty
GOD raises the dead in 1King 17 and 2Kings 4.
ReplyDeleteHave the audacity to trust GOD and do HIS will. GOD cares for HIS own! As JESUS points out in Luke 4 25-26.
ReplyDeleteLuke 9, JESUS feeds 5000 by multiplying 5 loaves of bread and 2 fishes. GOD is able to do what we humans know is impossible (the miraculous).
