Have you ever found yourself being stretched to the limit of your endurance or your capacity? I’m not a runner but when I watch marathon runners, or decathlon athletes, I think of people being stretched beyond their limits. Today, let’s go back and rejoin the old prophet Elijah, about 870bc, in the early months of a God sent drought in Israel! I think Elijah is nearing the limit of his endurance as he watches the little brook dry up due to not even a drop of rain, and I’m sure he was weary of eating what big black birds, ravens, dropped on the rocks for him each day! (1 Kings 17:6)
