Entry Nine


Son Restored to Life

One day i was walking to Shunem and this women 
urged me to stayfor a meal.  I said for a person that wants to help a man of God i will do anything. I felt very thankful when they built a bedroom for me. I told my servant to call the women and tell her thank you for doing this for all of us. "Elisha asked me to ask you what can we do for you?" She said "We have no son and my husband is old." I told her in a year you will hold a son in your arms just like you wanted. A few years later she came to me on a donkey. My servant tried to push her away but i told them to leave her alone. She said to me that her son has died. So i sent my servant to check on the 
kid. When he came back he told me that the boy is dead.
So i left to go see the child myself. The boy was lying dead on the couch in the house. I closed the door and i told every one else to wait outside and leave us alone. 

I leaned over the boy three times. He sneezed seven 
times and he opened his eyes again. The boy thanked me and i took him out to his mother and father. His mother fell on him and hugged him. They thanked me very much and said i can stay with them when ever i want. I sad to them don't thank me thank the Lord.
