As much as I wanted to do a bears-maul-teenagers design (which I eventually did do), that just seemed to easy, so I ended up choosing a different Elisha story. He’s hangin’ in Jericho and apparently the spring that supplies all the water for the city became dirty and unusable. People know Elisha has some mad God-power skills so they go tell him about their water problem and he drops some salt in the spring and God heals the water. I like this story because it seems like something that God is always doing. Throughout the Bible there are many instances of God taking something unclean and making it clean. Redeeming it, no matter how many times it gets dirty. Based on how often I screw up, I’m glad he has that type of patience and persistence. In fact, I may need some cleaning up after that bear feeding comment above.
