2Kings 6:4-6 So he went with them. And when they came to Jordan, they cut down wood.  But as one was felling a beam, the axe head fell into the water: and he cried, and said, Alas, master! for it was borrowed.  And the man of God said, Where fell it? And he shewed him the place. And he cut down a stick, and cast it in thither; and the iron did swim.  This is just one of thirty-two miracles recorded in the life of Elisha.  My precious wife told me her dad taught her how to swim.  When she was very young, he threw her into the water!  Not exactly my idea of swimming lessons!  In these verses we find that a borrowed axe head had fallen into the water.  It is not uncommon for an axe head to get loose on the handle and fly off.  What is uncommon is for a piece of iron to float!  Elisha throws a stick into the water and the iron axe head floats!  Do you believe in miracles?  Do you believe the Lord is interested even in the little things in your life?  He certainly is!  When we approach the throne of God with our requests we must see to it that our requests are made in faith.  This man approached Elisha and God met the need.  There will be times in life when the request is HUGE!  There are other times when it may seem small, just remember our Lord desires to be included in every aspect of our lives.

You may seem at times to be drowning in life.  Call on our heavenly lifeguard!  He’s always on duty!  Amen. Pastor
