ENCOURAGED BY THE STORY OF ELIJAH

Missed church this morning having a discussion with my beloved. The discussion failed to encourage him but I found comfort from the story of the prophet Elijah who was lonely, depressed wanting to die after very intense ministry (kind of like someone I know). The story recorded in 1 Kings 19 and 2 Kings 2, tells how God sent angels to feed him. Then God had a conversation with Elijah listening to him and speaking to him gently restoring hope and giving him Elisha to accompany him on the rest of his life journey.

Praying the same for my beloved husband trusting Psalm 23 is a true picture of how God shepherds his people.

That's the God I love!
