Just a thought by coppi

II Kings 6:17:  And Elisha prayed, “Open his eyes, Lord, so that he may see.” Then the Lord opened the servant’s eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.

” To the servant there was need of a more manifest vision, and for this Elisha prays, and God vouchsafes to grant it, that the servant may become as confident as his master. It is not that the troops may be gathered that Elisha prays, they are there already, but that the servant may have a seeing eye bestowed upon him to discern how well he and his master are protected.”

I read the above scripture years ago and it was one of those “awakening” moments for me!   I was fearful and afraid of the “mountain” I was facing.  How was I to handle this looming situation – anxiety engulfed me.  My prayer turned away from me to the Reality of God.  “Jesus, help me to surrender this problem to you – open my eyes to see and hear you say Coppi, I am already there – trust me”.
