This widow was in a terrible fix with debt and begged the prophet to help her. Elisha replied, \u201c&#8230; tell me, what do you have in your house?\u201d\u00a0Her answer was, \u201c<em>&#8230;only\u00a0<\/em>a jar of oil.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0But she soon learned this could be miraculously multiplied in the Hands of GOD!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I believe, all through my life, HE has been asking me this same question, &#8220;What do you have in your house&#8230; in your tool box&#8230; among your talents&#8230;?&#8221; Nudging me to pour out my seemingly little into any and every available vessel I can find, and watch HIM do the rest.&#8221; Yet just like the woman, who did not feel that what she had was enough, I&#8217;ve felt lacking too. GOD has shown us both, that a little offered to HIM will be used for great things.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From years of dancing, to raising children, now grand-mothering, painting and teaching sewing- fulfillment and joy has always come in the pouring out of my oil.\u00a0<em>Give and it will be given to you<\/em>. Any open vessel anywhere; anyone I can find. My small stash of treasure offered in faith will expand, enlarge, and grow.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The things which I believed would bring me joy, are nothing in comparison to the glorious riches GOD had planned for me. HE swooped in and changed my life in a moment. And HE even asked me to participate in HIS Great Big Will. I feel incredibly blessed. &#x2764;&#xfe0f; I only want to live every day thankful, grateful, glorifying as I pour out my oil. -Anna<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">FORGLORYSAKE.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I love the story of Elisha and the mother in 2 kings 4:1-7.
