Passage Read: 2 Kings 4-7
Meditation Verse: 4:7
Thought
It is a hard thing to get into debt, because it is hard to get out of it. This prophet had felt compelled to go into enough debt that his sons were going to be taken as slaves to pay it off. Yet God was gracious to the widow and provided means to pay off the debt in a miraculous way. I'm in significantly more debt than I want to be in today, while I would love a miracle to pay off my debt, I have the means to take extra work to pay it down.
Application
I should know by the end of February how many supporters are going to continue with us. Based on that amount, I'll know how much extra work I should look for. Ideally, I should look for work in Alburnett or Center Point, but I should also check on that position in Hiawatha.
