Today’s Reading:
2 Kings 4:1–7 (EFKS Tusi Faitau Aso)
“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 Kings 4:1)
This week’s EFKS theme:
Stolen from God: Slavery
A Thought for Today
Financial hardship can become much more than numbers on a page.
What This Means for Us Today
This widow faced grief, debt, and the possibility of losing her sons.
Her story reminds us how quickly hardship can leave people vulnerable.
God saw her need, and through Elisha provision came. We too can choose compassion rather than judgement when someone is struggling.
Carry This With You
Look at the person before you look at their circumstances.
A Simple Prayer
Lord, provide for those carrying heavy financial burdens.
Give me a compassionate heart toward those who struggle.
Today’s Invitation
If someone around you is struggling, resist quick judgement.
Offer encouragement instead.
