(Vervolg van Deel 1)

Die Kritspruit was 'n lieflike plek. Die bome het skaduwee gegee van die warm son gedurende die dag en 'n snoesige plek om te rus gegee in die nag. Met die kraaie wat twee keer 'n dag gekom en brood en vleis gebring het, het Elia al die nodige kosvoorraad gehad. God het vir hom gesorg en hy was heel tevrede. 'n Deel van die rede waarom hy so gemaklik was met sy buitemuurse huis, was omdat daar geen reën was nie.

Dae het in weke verander…toe maande…toe jare. Elia het klein veranderings sien plaasvind. Die gras het begin bruin word. Die bome het nie soveel blare gehad nie. Die diere was kleiner as gewoonlik. Die watervlak in die spruit het laer en laer geword. Op sommige plekke kon hy die modderige bodem sien en op ander plekke, kon hy op droë grond deurloop.

Toe eendag, gebeur dit….

Elia het honger en dors wakker geword. Hy het na die spruit gegaan om water te drink, maar daar was niks. Die spruit was heeltemal droog. Hy het gewag dat die kraaie sy daaglikse kos bring. Die oggend het verbygeglip tot in die middag, maar die kraai het nie gekom nie. Elia het gewag en gewag. Die voël sou tog sekerlik sy aandete bring. Die aand het gekom en toe nag, maar die kraai het steeds nie gekom nie. WAT moes hy doen? Het God van hom VERGEET?

Maar, natuurlik nie! God het gehou by sy belofte, wat hy vir Elia beveel het om aan Koning Agab oor te dra. Dit was: Daar sal geen reën vir 'n lang tyd wees nie. Net toe Elia begin wonder wat hy moes doen, het hy 'n stem gehoor.

Off he went walking down the dirty road “Staan op! Gaan na Sarfat. Daar sal 'n weduwee vrou vir jou sorg.”

Hy het besef dat dit die stem van God was en daarom het hy baie, baie noukeurig geluister.

“Sarfat? My aarde, wat 'n vreemde naam! Maar as dit is waarheen God wil hê ek moet gaan, dan is dít waarheen ek sal gaan,” het Elia gedink.

Hy het vertrek en met die grondpad langs geloop. Hierdie reis was so anders as sy reis na die spruit. Dit was so warm! Daar was nêrens water nie! Hy het niks gehad om te drink nie en hy het baie dors geword. Oral waar hy gekyk het, was daar niks behalwe droë, stowwerige grond nie. Hy het 'n paar plante gesien wat probeer het om te groei, maar sonder water, het hulle verskriklik dun en maer gelyk.

Hy het warm gekry…

was moeg…

honger…

en dors….

As he got near the city gate he looked around and saw a woman
gathering sticks Maar daar was niks anders wat hy kon doen as om aan te gaan nie. Jy kan dink hoe opgewonde Elia was toe hy uiteindelik die dorpie Sarfat voor hom gesien het! Hy het haastig verder gestap. Hy het daarna uitgesien om koel water uit die put te drink! Toe hy naby die stadspoort kom, het hy rondgekyk en 'n vrou gesien houtjies bymekaarmaak.

Asseblief, bring vir my 'n bietjie water in 'n beker, sodat ek kan drink,” het hy vir die vrou gesê.

Die vrou het dadelik die houtjies neergesit en na die put geloop om vir Elia water te bring. Sy het nie baie ver geloop nie, toe sy hom weer hoor roep na haar. “En bring asseblief vir my 'n stukkie brood.”

Please bring me a little water in a jar so that I can have a drink he said to the woman Die vrou het ietwat geskrik en omgedraai na Elia toe. “Ek het geen brood nie,” het sy met 'n frons gesê. “Al wat ek het, is 'n handjievol meel op die bodem van die pot en 'n klein bietjie olie. Ek het hierheen gekom om twee houtjies op te tel om 'n vuur te maak om 'n klein broodkoekie vir my en my seun te bak. Daarna, skat ek, sal ons van honger doodgaan, omdat daar nie meer kos is nie.”

O my aarde! Wat gaan nou gebeur? Dit was dieselfde weduvrou wat God belowe het Elia sou voed. Sy het nie eers genoeg kos gehad om een goeie maaltyd vir haar en haar seun te maak nie. Hoe kon sy in staat wees om vir Elia te sorg?

Dont be afraid Elijah said to the worried widow woman “Moenie bang wees nie,” het Elia vir die bekommerde vrou gesê. “Gaan! Doen soos wat jy gesê het! Maak die vuur en bak die roosterkoek, maar bring dit eerste vir my. Laat EK eerste eet. Maak dan iets vir jou en jou seun. Die Here God sê dat die meel in die pot nie sal leeg word nie en die kan olie sal altyd vol wees tot op die dag waarop die Here reën sal stuur.”

Huiwerig, het die vrou die meel uit die pot geneem. Sy het toe die laaste bietjie olie uit die kan gegiet. Sy het dit saam gemeng en die mengsel in 'n klein pannetjie op die vuur, wat sy gemaak het, gesit. Toe dit gaar was, het sy dit op 'n bord gesit. Toe het sy vir 'n oomblik gestop en gedink.

As ek hierdie laaste klein roosterkoekie vir Elia gee, wat sal ek en my seun eet? Sal die woorde wat Elia gespreek het waar word? Sal God die pot vol meel hou en die kan vol olie soos Elia gesê het?

The widow knew that
she had to give him the pancake Toe het sy iets onthou. Sy het gehoor van die man genaamd Elia. Hy was die een wat voor Koning Agab gestaan het en hulle vertel het daar sal geen reën wees totdat hy so sê nie. Aan die begin het die mense hom gespot en hom nie geglo nie. Hmmm…. hulle ALMAL het hom nou geglo! Dit het vir 'n baie lang tyd nie gereën nie en baie mense, die koning ingesluit, het Elia geblameer. Die weduwee het geweet dat sy vir hom die roosterkoek moes gee.

Nadat Elia die klein roosterkoekie geëet het, het die vrou na die pot gegaan. Sy was amper te bang om te kyk.

Stadig, het sy die deksel opgelig….

Sy het na binne geloer….

Wat het sy gesien?

Daar was OORGENOEG meel.

Slowly she removed the lid and peaked inside there was plenty of flour Sy het genoeg opgeskep om vir haarself en haar seun 'n roosterkoek te maak. Sy het die kan olie opgetel en gevind dit was vol. Sy het genoeg uitgegiet om dit met die meel te meng. Sy het die deeg in die pan gegooi en dit op die vuur gesit om gaar te word. Hulle almal het 'n heerlike roosterkoek vir ete gehad daardie dag.

Die weduwee en haar seun het geleer dat Elia die waarheid gepraat het. Nie net was daar genoeg meel en olie vir roosterkoek vir daardie dag nie; daar was genoeg meel en olie vir

die volgende dag…

en die volgende dag…

en die volgende dag….

Trouens, die pot meel het nie opgeraak en die kan olie het vol gebly totdat die Here reën gestuur het, net soos Elia gesê het. Wat 'n wonderlike God het ons nie!

DINK!

1. Toe die kraaie opgehou het om kos vir Elia te bring, het dit beteken dat God nie vir hom omgegee het nie?
2. Wat dink jy sou gebeur het as die weduwee selfsugtig was en die laaste roosterkoek vir haar en haar seun gehou het?


ONTHOU

God het belowe om alles te voorsien wat jy nodig het.


'N VERS OM TE LEER

“En my God sal elke behoefte van julle vervul na sy rykdom in heerlikheid deur Christus Jesus” (Filippense 4:19).


ALTERNATIEWE VERSE OM TE LEER:

“Gee, en aan julle sal gegee word. 'n Goeie
maat wat ingedruk en geskud en oorlopend is, sal
hulle in jul skoot gee, want met dieselfde maat
waarmee julle meet, sal weer vir julle gemeet
word” (Lukas 6:38).

“En God het alle mag om alle genade oorvloedig
oor julle te laat wees, sodat julle altyd in alle
opsigte volop kan hê en oorvloedig kan wees tot
elke goeie werk” (2 Korinthiërs 9:8).


PRAKTIESE TOEPASSING

Hoekom dink jy het God Elia na 'n arm weduwee
gestuur wat amper geen kos oorgehad het nie en nie
na 'n ryk persoon wat oorvloed gehad het nie?

Het jy 'n behoefte? Vertel God alles daarvan en
vertrou Hom om jou te help. Miskien ken jy iemand
wat hulp nodig het. Vra God om vir jou maniere te
wys hoe jy hulle kan help.

[Na bespreking:] Moet nooit dink jy het niks om
vir God te gee nie. Met die bietjie wat jy het,
kan Hy wonderwerke verrig as jy sy Woord vertrou
en Hom met geloof gehoorsaam.

Help ons om U te vertrou en na U stem te luister.
In Jesus se Naam. Amen.

He owns the cattle on a thousand hills,
The wealth in every mine;
He owns the rivers and the rocks and rills,
The sun and stars that shine.
Wonderful riches, more than tongue can tell -
He is my Father so they're mine as well;
He owns the cattle on a thousand hills -
I know that He will care for me.
