"What's in Your House?"

So I had this crazy sense of deja vu this morning. Our sermon this morning was on II Kings 4:1-7

The Widow's Oil

¹ The wife of a man from the company of the prophets cried out to Elisha, "Your servant my husband is dead, and you know that he revered the LORD. But now his creditor is coming to take my two boys as his slaves."

² Elisha replied to her, "How can I help you? Tell me, what do you have in your house?"
"Your servant has nothing there at all," she said, "except a little oil."

³ Elisha said, "Go around and ask all your neighbors for empty jars. Don't ask for just a few. ⁴ Then go inside and shut the door behind you and your sons. Pour oil into all the jars, and as each is filled, put it to one side."

⁵ She left him and afterward shut the door behind her and her sons. They brought the jars to her and she kept pouring. ⁶ When all the jars were full, she said to her son, "Bring me another one."
But he replied, "There is not a jar left." Then the oil stopped flowing.

⁷ She went and told the man of God, and he said, "Go, sell the oil and pay your debts. You and your sons can live on what is left."

So the strange part about this all is I've already heard this sermon same title and everything this past week during the Bible study I attend. But this morning I could really feel God like taking me by my shoulders, shaking me and saying "HEY DUMMY! Incase you didn't get it the first time I'm talking to you!" The story of this widow is so touching and it's a huge testament to just relying on your faith to pull you through. Which is something that I need to really work on. I think that being able to just trust with a blind faith like the widow is a tremendous act of courage.
