2 Kings 4:13-15

Today’s Scripture: 2 Kings 4:13-15 The Message—Through Gehazi Elisha said, “You’ve gone far beyond the call of duty in taking care of us; what can we do for you? Do you have a request we can bring to the king or to the commander of the army?” She replied, “Nothing. I’m secure and satisfied in my family.” Elisha conferred with Gehazi: “There’s got to be something we can do for her. But what?”  Gehazi said, “Well, she has no son, and her husband is an old man.” “Call her in,” said Elisha. He called her and she stood at the open door.
Today’s Word: Satisfied
Today’s Prayer: Dear Lord, it amazes me that even though she obviously wanted a child she was secure and satisfied with what she had. Her focus was on what she had and not on what she lacked. Her story reminds me of Psalm 37:4 that says in part ‘if I delight in you, you will give me the desires of my heart.’ That’s what I desire, Lord, to focus on you in such a way that you can line my will up with yours. Amen.
