CASNFCI SCRIPTURE & PRAYER FOR THE DAY

Stretching Faith

“Don’t be afraid . . . But first, make a small loaf of bread for me from what you have and bring it to me, and then make something for yourself and your son.” — 1 Kings 17:13

Elijah asked her for the one thing she didn’t think she could spare. Giving up her last resource. In this desperate moment, she was pushed beyond her very limits to endure.

She was out of food and without any options, but God was ready to work a miracle for her if she will open the door of her heart to him. What she needed was to trust God enough to be obedient.

Just like this woman, God challenges us to move beyond our expectations and imaginations and to respond in obedience to the calling he has placed upon us.

Yes, it was a difficult moment for the woman but God expects her to hold her peace and be confident that He is in charge therefore, trusting Him to work out the best plan for her is her best option.

Where are we placing our trust? Are we helping others to stretch in new ways? How willing are we to stretch and be stretched? God wants us to develop a relationship of trust that will also stand strong even when stretching to obedience.

PRAYER

Lord, give us the courage to trust and help others to trust you and to follow boldly where you lead. In Jesus' name Amen.
