In fairy tale, like the magic cooking pot where the porridge never run dry, this is wow so nice. I believe the idea was taken from Elijah.
Not only God made the jar not able to be spent, Elijah raises the dead. The possibility of raising the dead was therefore recorded in the OT, so why the insistent that their is not resurrection of the dead?
The widow that spend the time with Elijah knew that he was a prophet and the jar never went dry, but why doubt God? There was however no record of raising of the dead.
We saw the miracles but failed to believe, we know that God raises the dead, but only in our mind. What is really lacking is to bring these miracles personally to your heart.
Everyday, we pray but things don't happen. But when it does, do we acknowledge that God did the miracle? When things don;t happen, are we like the widow who don't believe?
Whether it happen the way we pray or not, God has a lesson for us all, what is God trying to teach us.
I pray for Jesus to be real and the personal experience we have in Him goes with us throughout the day. In times of goodness and bad, we know God is God and we believe.
