Then the lord gave special strength to Elijah. He tucked his cloak into his belt
Elijah was afraid and fled for his life.
Then he went on alone into the wilderness, traveling all day. He sat down under a solitary broom tree and prayed that he might die. “I have had enough, lord,”
but the lord was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the lord was not in the earthquake. 12And after the earthquake there was a fire, but the lord was not in the fire. And after the fire there was the sound of a gentle whisper.
the lord instructed one of the group of prophets to say to another man, “Hit me!” But the man refused to hit the prophet. 36Then the prophet told him, “Because you have not obeyed the voice of the lord, a lion will kill you
Special strength, That is what I want but am I willing to not ponder the things God tells me to do, not to ask, “really” but to say OK. The Lord passes Elijah, he is not in the all powerful wind earthquake, fire but in the gentle whisper.
Lord God, make me a drone for you, just obeying you without question. Help me to quiet the load roar of this world and my learned beliefs completely discarding them so I may hear and follow your quiet voice.
In Jesus name,
Amen
