What can I do for you?

(: )

: In the story of the widow who approaches the prophet Elisha, we learn the importance of presenting our needs to the Lord with clarity and specificity. Elisha's question "what will I do to you?" is not a sign of confusion, but rather a way for the Holy Spirit to involve the woman in the miracle that is to unfold. Similarly, when Jesus asked Bartimaeus, "What do you want me to do to you?" he was inviting a declaration of faith and a clear request. God likes us to cooperate with Him in working out our miracles, and often asks us to tell Him what we have at hand - the deposit or foundation upon which He can work His wonders. We should persist in presenting our needs to God and asking for His help.

We have to be clear when we are in situations of need and present our needs to the Lord with a first and last name. This widow who approaches the prophet Elisha tells him in a very succinct and concentrated way what his crisis consists of, and thus we have to be clear and specific when we present our needs to him.

Now: Eliseo's response or rather the way he reacts to his presentation is very interesting and very revealing. Eliseo comes out with a question and says: "What will I do to you? Tell me what you have at home."
