Jar of meal shall not be spent.
Jug of oil shall not be emptied.
Just as Elijah had foretold the jar of meal was not spent.
The jug of oil was not emptied.

I was listening to Faure’s Sanctus in his Requiem.
In the other room Celebrity Come Dancing was on.
I know I greatly prefer the first item.
But all too soon this music was drifting away, gone.

I felt even more greatly drawn to all things spiritual.
Calming , not demanding.
Other worldly not material.
Joyous, soothing, inspiring

When all that is spiritual  is attempted.
The jug of hope is never emptied.

….   ..

When is our meal spent
Is our jug of oil emptied
Yes, if we lose hope

…….

See 1 Kings 17 : 10-16
