Welcome to BAM

Jesus draws our attention to the fact that the one widow who ministered to Elijah was God's choice, not Elijah's.
It was no use her saying that she could not understand why God chose her, or to try and understand what would happen to all the other widows seeking to feed their families in this God-sent drought.
And so it is if God calls you. How God is dealing with others does not matter: it suddenly becomes your responsibility to listen and obey. God calls out people. He called Abraham and through him all nations were to be blessed: then Moses and the prophets and apostles and all the disciples. They are the 'sent ones' and to find that you are one such person is cause for thanks and praise to God.
