Out Of Options?

READ: 2 Kings 5:1-3,9-15

Now I know that there is no God in all the earth, except in Israel. —2 Kings 5:15

As ancient Syria’s mightiest military commander, General Naaman had all the benefits the empire could offer: influence, affluence, and power. All, that is, except for health! Naaman was a leper (2 Kings 5:1-3).

In contrast, the servant girl in the general’s household had no options or power at all. As a captive from an army raid, she had been forced into a lifetime of slavery (v.2). But she did not permit herself to be overcome by despair and bitterness. Rather, she rose above her no-option estate to serve wholeheartedly the best interests of her master.

This servant girl didn’t see her master’s leprosy as God’s punishment but as an opportunity to point Naaman to God’s prophet in Samaria (v.3). Her recommendation led to Naaman’s complete healing. He declared, “Now I know that there is no God in all the earth, except in Israel” (v.15).

Today, many people have abundant options. Others, however, have their choices curtailed by poverty, poor health, or other adverse circumstances. When a crisis comes, even their limited options evaporate.

Yet one choice always remains. Like Naaman’s servant girl, we can still choose to serve God and point others to Him—regardless of our limited circumstances.

’Tis mine to choose if self shall die
And never rise again;
’Tis mine to yield the throne to Christ
And bid Him rule and reign. —Christiansen

Facing an impossibility gives us the opportunity to trust God.

Bible in One Year: Daniel 4–6; Proverbs 18:1-12

You Are Ballroom Dancing

You are sophisticated and classy. Definitely not the type to be seen dancing on a bar.
You are a bit old fashioned. You prefer dance to be subtly sexy, not in your face sexy.

You are sentimental and nostalgic. You appreciate the beauty of old things.
You are even tempered and cooperative. You work well with a partner.

What Dance Are You?

Dancing??? Definitely I'd be the "Hokey Pokey!" (But the quiz said otherwise!)

You Are Break Dancing

You are a rebel and a rule breaker.
You are uniquely you, and you expressing your individuality.

And while you're different and a bit weird, you're no slacker.
You're extremely hard working. Having unusual talents is not as easy as it looks!

The power of God protect you
The presence of God watch over you

And all is well.
Amen.

 Bless this house O Lord we pray; Make it safe by night and day; 
Bless these walls so firm and stout, Keeping want and trouble out:
Bless the roof and chimneys tall, Let thy peace lie over all;
Bless this door, that it may prove ever open to joy and love.
Bless these windows shining bright, Letting in God's heav'nly light;

Bless the folk who dwell within, keep them pure and free from sin;
Bless us all that we may be Fit O Lord to dwell with thee;
Bless us all that one day we May dwell O Lord with thee.

I went back and changed one answer. (I won't say which.)
Of course, the lack of "embarrasing" choices from how others would describe it made everything else a lie.
