God takes us seriously

Dr. Roberto Miranda
(Audio: Spanish)

SUMMARY: God wants to work in partnership with us when performing miracles in our lives. In the story of the widow and Elisha, the widow only had a pot of oil, which may seem inadequate, but God can work through imperfect and inadequate resources. God wants us to make an effort and be diligent in finding solutions to our problems. In the story, the widow had to borrow many pots from her neighbors to receive the miracle of oil. This involved the community and had an evangelistic power to bless others. The miracle had a public and private part, and God was glorified through the community involvement.

God wants us to participate in partnership with Him when He is performing great miracles for our lives. We were saying that Elisha asks this widow: what do you have at home? and by doing this he is involving her in this process because we said that God likes to work with us in the elaboration of His miracles, our miracles.

One of the things we have to take into account is that God takes us seriously and that He wants us to take ourselves seriously as well. There are things that God wants to do in our life and that He does not do because we are not cooperating with Him, we are indolent and passive and we believe that God has to do everything, no. There are things He wants us to do and He likes to work in partnership with us.
