Morning Word from Pastor Peter Sunagawa

While Elijah was staying at the widow's house, the jar of flour never ran out.
For three and a half years...the house had only a handful of flour and a little oil.
...When the widow made bread every day, she had to use everything she had.
...Even so, when she prepared the next meal,
there was never a shortage of flour or oil.
...What a blessing it is to be able to remember that blessing day by day.
...I heard a similar testimony.
A female business owner in Hyogo Prefecture...was too busy...to go buy rice.
However...for a year and a half...she hadn't opened the rice bin in her kitchen...yet she was still getting rice every day.
...Three years ago, I also had an experience where my car's gasoline was almost gone...but before the car stopped...the gas gauge started going up again!
I was able to drive home from Naha Airport with plenty of energy left.

...The Lord is still alive and working!

Shalom 😃
