Quarter 3: Week 5: Thursday: 2 Kings 2: 13-25:
Elisha picked up the cloath that had fallen, and went and stood in the Jordan. The prophets told him that the spirit of Elijah was resting upon her. The prophets didn't know what happened, so they said they would go look from him, but Elisha told them no. He finally told them yes after they keep bugging him. They put salt in the water, and it would no longer cause death. Someone would know you have a deep respect for God through your additudes and actions. If you have a bad addittude or bad actions, they would know you are not of the Lord or respect him of that matter.

Quarter 3: Week 5: Wednesday: 2 Kings 2: 1-12:
When God was going to take Elijah up to heaven, he was with Elisha. He told her to wait because the Lord had called him to Bethel. She told him she would not leave him, so she went to Bethel with him. All the prophits told Elisha what the Lord was to do. Elijah then told her to stay because the Lord had called him to Jericho. She once more told him she was to not leave his side. So they both journed on together. He asked her what she wanted him to do before he was taken up, and she said she wanted to inherit a double portion of his spirit. He told her if she saw him after he was taken up she could have what she wanted. Then he cried out and Elisha saw him no more. Commintments are serious things. Like when you go to school or a job you make a commintment that you will work your hardest. The most important commintment of all, is marrige. One should go out of his way just to keep a commintment.

Quarter 3: Week 5: Tuesday: 1 Kings 22: 29-40:
The king of Israel went into a battle in a disguise. The king of Aram told his men not to fight anyone, but the king of Israel. Someone else hit the king of Israel with a arrow, so he told his chariot driver to turn back around. It was too late, his blood hit the ground, and he died later that night. Just as the Lord had said, the dogs licked up his blood before he was buried. Sometime being tempted to hide from God means you know you have done something wrong. Like when Adam and Eve tried to hide fromm God after eating the fruit they were told NOT to eat. Or when the king of Israel tried to hide from death. The best thing to do is pray to God, tell him what you did, and ask for His forgiveness.

Soon there was an incident in Naboth's vineyard in Jezreel. Ahab went up and asked if he could have his vineyard. He said he would give a better vineyard, or whatever ammount of Naboth wanted. Maboth merly replied by saying the Lord said he couldn't sell the land. So Ahab went home angry and refused to eat. His wife told him to get up and said she would get him the vineyard. She wrote letters with Ahab's name on it and sent them off to Naboth. In the letter it said to stone Naboth to death, so all the elderlys did. Right after that Ahab's wife told him to go and claim the vineyard. Ahab was told hhe would have disaster, but he humbled himself and did not. Justice is an important thing to have. Without it murder's would be on the street, well technacly there already are. But, it's still important.

Quarter 3: Week 4: Wednesday: 1 Kings 17: 1-24 :
In this readging the Lord told Elijah to go east of the Jordan and drink from the brooke. He told him he would also be supplied with food. The ravens brought him food daily and the brook brought him the waterly need. Later the brook dried up from lack of rain. God told him to go to Zarephath and that a widow would supply his needs there. He went and asked a lady to get him water and bread. She could give the water, but told him she had not enough breed to share, for she had to feed herself and her son. He told her about how the Lord said she wouldn't run out of that stuff till rain comes to the land. So day by day the woman had enough to supply for her, her son, and Elijah. Later her son became ill, and got so bad that he breathed no longer. She got mad and asked why he came to remind her of her sins by killing her only son. Elijah brought him back to life, and she believed once more. Obeying and trusting God go together because in order to obey God, you need to trust Him, and in order to trust Him, you must obey Him.

Quarter 3: Week 4: Tuesday: 1 Kings 12: 1-24 :
Rehoboam was off to Shechem to be made king. Jeroboam heard the news when he was in Egypt, when he fled from Solomon, and was returning. Rehoboam told the people of Israel to go away for three days and then come back, so we did. When he asked the old people for advise, he didn't really use it. Then, he tried to get advise from the young men he grew up with. When the people came back, the king took the young men's advice. The king refused to listen to them, and the people caught on soon. All the Israelites went back home, except for the ones who were ruled over stayed. When they came back God told them to go back home, and they did. If he would have listened to his elders, this would not have happend. They have learned from their mistakes. When I need advise, I'll go to my best friends, or even my group leader Sarah.

Quarter 3: Week 4: Monday: 1 Kings 10: 1-13 :
In the reading today, the queen of Sheba heard how Solomon had became king and had a relationship with God. She decided to put his faith to the test. She rode into town and for every single question she asked, Solomon had an answer. After she realized his wisdom and all, she became very overwhelmed. The queen told him the reports about his wisdom in her country were, in fact, true. She told him God eternal love for Israel had appointed him king so he maintain justiceness and righteousness throught the people. The queen gave Solomon much money and spices, and Solomon gave the queen of Sheba whatever she asked for in return. Soon she had to reunite with her country though. As a human, I try to impress people alot. Wether it's showing off stuff or just well, showing off. I don't do it too often though, just when I'm around cool people. :D haha
