Available for God's Purpose: Lessons from the Life of Elisha

Paperback

Imagine being at work one day, having a stranger come in and put his jacket on you, and then leaving the life you know to follow God completely. That's exactly what happened in the biblical account of Elisha. Yes, it is an extreme example. But we can learn from Elisha's simple act of saying yes to God. 
 
God searches far more for the available than for the able. And He found availability in a seemingly insignificant young man who was doing nothing more profound than plowing a field on the family farm. Our Daily Bread author Bill Crowder uses the life of Elisha to show us how God can accomplish amazing things through an available life. Crowder writes in his usual down-to-earth style, offering contemporary illustrations so you can relate to the struggles and triumphs of Elisha.
 
In this world where people are constantly being pushed to be "somebody," this simple message allows you to relax, trust God, and be available when He needs you.
