What Do You Have In The House?

A word from the Pastor:
Friday evening at the Mother/Daughter Banquet, a game was played called "What's in your purse?" The objective was to determine which group of ladies had the most itmes from a long list. NO one had a kitchen sink! However, it might surprise some to find out what people (men and women) consider important enough to carry with them. And while we're on the subject, what about all those things we store in the house of garage? Valuable stuff!

When the widow of a prophet came to Elisha, explaining that the creditors were coming to take her sons as payment for her debt, Elisha asked, "What do you have in the house?" "Nothing, except a jar of oil," was her reply. What value was that, compared to the debt she owed?

At that point the mother wasn't thinking about God being a part of the equation. God, working through Elisha, multiplied the oil, enough to pay her debts, and enough left over to live on.

What do you have in your house, moms? A bible prayer? How about Godly influence? Le me urge you to give taht to God and let Him bring about the desired changes and blessings you need in your home.
