The Bottom of the Barrel

Have you ever felt like you’ve reached the bottom of the barrel? In 1 Kings 17:1-16, we read of a widow woman and her son who were literally at the bottom of their barrel. Yet, in the midst of this, God asked them to take a step of faith and feed Elijah. God asked them to use what they had for His glory, and He blessed them for trusting Him. What about you today? Are you trusting God? Are you His child? God promises that He will provide all our needs if we will but trust in Him – won’t you trust Him today for your today, tomorrow, and eternity? And then let us each allow God to use us where we are!
