123 - "God Eclipses Our Story For Good" 2 Kings 6-8

What are the chances of seeing a total solar eclipse in your lifetime?  

What are the chances of walking in on a King having a conversation about your son?

And you haven't lived in that town for 7 years.

God eclipses our story for Good---outshines, outlasts, outdoes.

There is nothing said in this life that God does not hear.
There is nothing done that God does not know.
Our Advocate may be silent or storming. 
His Eyes, His Ears are here today.  

The Shunammite woman took Elisha's advice in the midst of famine.
She sojourned in the land of the Phlistines for seven years.
Went to the familiar for help, for food, for life.
She took her son restored from the dead.
Nothing out of God's Knowing.

Upon her return, she appeals to the king to inquire about her house. 2 Kings 8:5
She enters and the King is talking with Gehazi about Elisha.
Tell me all the great things that Elisha has done.
She speaks up: Elisha restored my son.
And so the king restores her land.
7 Years Worth---here it is.

There are no insignificant events in this life.  
A simple conversation can turn into a deep blessing.  
A mundane moment can produce holy hope if God is in the midst.
So keep on ploughing in reverence and in repentance.
Be present. Nothing is out of His Knowing.
