2 Kings 5:1-5. Naaman…stopped at the door of Elisha's house. The prophet sent him the message: “Go and wash seven times in the Jordan, and your flesh will heal, and you will be clean.” But Naaman went away angry, saying, “I thought he would surely come out and stand there to invoke his God, and would move his hand over the spot, and thus cure the leprosy. But his servants…reasoned with him… “If the prophet had told you to do something extraordinary, would you not have done it? All the more now, since he said to you, 'Wash and be clean,' should you do as he said.” Naaman went down and plunged into the Jordan seven times…His flesh became again like the flesh of a little child.
| I believe we all
sometime have our doubts or questions in our everyday lives. Questioning if we
are doing the right thing or doubting ourselves in our actions or tasks at hand.
But we are never alone, with God at our side and our trusting in God that our
beliefs are for the good of all. We are here for one another as God is here for us.
We should lean on one another, help each other, encourage each other; it will make
us stronger as individuals and realize our supporting one another makes us true
persons in our community of faith. As adults and all young people who sometimes
step back to remember, stepping forward is much more gratifying. Peace of mind:
we are never alone! - Becky Meyer-Halverson, 3rd Shift Supervisor, Custodial/Facilities Operations |
