DAILY READINGS: Judges 11:29 to 12:15; Isaiah 32; 1 Cor. 10:14 to 11:1
One said, Be content, I pray thee, and go with thy servants. And he answered, I will go. 2 Kings 6:3
The sons of the prophets needed to expand their territory, but there was no thought of leaving Elisha behind. How lovely when younger men are so attached to their spiritual mentors that they do not want to leave them. Conversely its says much for the winsomeness and wisdom of Elisha. Lets make sure we older men are fathers not ogres. —Brian Russell
Go, labour on; spend and be spent,
Thy joy to do the Father's will,
It is the way the Master went;
Should not the servant tread it still?
—Horatius Bonar
