Have you ever felt like you didn’t have enough to make a difference? In 2 Kings 4, a widow comes to the prophet Elisha with a huge problem. Her husband has died, and creditors are coming to take her sons as slaves. All she has left is a small jar of olive oil. That may not sound like much, but Elisha tells her to gather as many empty jars as she can find. She obeys, and God miraculously fills every single one until there are no more jars left.

This story is a powerful reminder that God delights in working through what we already have, even if it seems insignificant. Just like the boy in John 6 who offered his lunch, the widow didn’t let her idea of “not enough” stop her from trusting God. When we bring what we have and place it in His hands, we get to be part of something extraordinary.

You may not have a lot of resources, influence, or confidence, but God doesn’t need you to have “enough” by the world’s standards. He simply asks you to trust Him with what you do have. The miracle isn’t in the size of your gift, it’s in the hands of the One who receives it.

Questions to consider:

• How is this story similar to the boy with the loaves and fish?
• What does it teach you about trusting God with what you have?
