Episode notes

The widow in this story lost her husband and now was struggling through a famine in providing sustenance for her and her son. She was destitute and in despair. Despite God providing for her she still couldn’t get herself to overcome her sadness. In my discernment she may have been still blaming God for the loss of her husband. She was not willing to believe. In this story God does a second miracle for her in raising her son back to life. She now becomes a believer. Praise God for all the miracles in this chapter. Does God have to do a miracle for each of us personally for us to believe? Has not he already done so all throughout history?

Is it possible that the change that is needed is that of seeking God to find Him versus seeking God only to deny Him?
