Who's at your table?

 1 Kings chapter 17 is a beautiful picture of what we're called to do. The relationship our Lord and Saviour wants us to have with others. To give freely and love deeply. To meet each others needs. Elijah started by creating a relationship with God, trusting the Lord and following him. The Lord sent Elijah to the Widow to take care of him, who had virtually nothing, but she also trusted in the Lord and the Lord provided. ~ soon after the widow's son became very ill and Elijah carried the boy to the upper room (does anyone else get a great visual of what this looked like) and cried out to the Lord asking the Lord to heal this boy.~ and the boy was healed. Isn't this what relationships are supposed to look like? Showing compassion, trusting the Lord, going where he leads you, putting others before yourself, meeting each others needs...  as I sit here and reflect on this amazing story I also reflect on the relationships in my life~ who is sitting around my table and whether I'm trusting the Lord to lead each one of those relationships. I challenge you to do the same.
