This past weekend, we learned about the prophet Elijah in 1 King’s 18 and how his obedience to God's divine commission made way for God’s provision during a long season of drought in Israel. Elijah's obedience in declaring the return of rain reminds us that God can use us as instruments of change and hope in our trying moments.

May we find inspiration in Elijah's journey and let our resolve, desires, and compassion lead us into a deeper relationship with The God of Fire and Rain!
