Resurrection in the Rust

Due to our busy schedules, my family eats way more fast food than I care to admit. It’s bad for you, and lately, it’s become quite expensive. Still, I have a rule: always get the fries. If one or more of us does not order fries, they end up regretting it. So does the person who did, because they won’t end up enjoying their full serving. It’s not that we have a problem with sharing. But when you’re hungry, you’re hungry. And French fries are irresistible. After reading today’s Scripture, I realize just how blessed we are to enjoy such an abundance of food, as not everyone is so fortunate.  Photo credit: www.churchart.com The prophet Elijah lived during a time of drought, which had been sent by God to punish King Ahab and the Northern Kingdom of divided Israel for their idolatry and lawlessness.  Click here to read the Scripture text Even though Elijah had not committed these sins, the drought affected him all the same. God commanded Elijah to hide himself by the Cherith stream.
