Series: The Ships of Trinity “Stewardship”

I Kings 17:14-15

¹⁴ For this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: The jar of flour will not be used up and the jug of oil will not run dry until the day the Lord gives rain on the land. ¹⁵ She went away and did as Elijah had told her. So there was food every day for Elijah and for the woman and her family.
