Elijah in the wilderness, by Washington Allston
Elijah was tired. He was sick and tired.
He sank deeply into a despair that was not touched by logic or surface encouragement.
He needed the deep encouragement of "The Presence."
He received it ... but he also received a tangible answer from God: a successor. He was being called to a new phase of life - to invest in others and especially one other, Elisha, who would not only carry on his work and give meaning to his life, but would do even greater things.
Thus, the title of this brief entry:

It is part of the plan in this grand relay.
This is a team sport!
