1 Kings 17:8-16

 

Then the word of the Lord came to him, saying, “Go now to

Zarephath, which belongs to Sidon, and live there; for I have      commanded a widow there to feed you.”  So he set out and               went to Zarephath.  When he came to the gate of the town, a             widow was there gathering sticks; he called to her and said,             “Bring me a little water in a vessel, so that I may drink.”  As                 she was going to bring it, he called to her and said, “Bring me                a morsel of bread in your hand.”  But she said, “As the Lord               your God lives, I have nothing baked, only a handful of meal                   in a jar, and a little oil in a jug; I am now gathering a couple of           sticks, so that I may go home and prepare it for myself and my            son, that we may eat it, and die.”  Elijah said to her, “Do not be          afraid; go and do as you have said, but first make me a little             cake of it and bring it to me, and afterwards make something                for yourself and your son.  For thus says the Lord the God of        Israel: The jar of meal will not be emptied and the jug of oil               will not fail until the day that the Lord sends rain on the earth.”           She went and did as Elijah said, so that she as well as he and            her household ate for many days.  The jar of meal was not              emptied,  neither did the jug of oil fail, according to the word               of the Lord that he spoke by Elijah.

   

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Luke 7:11-17

Soon afterwards he went to a town called Nain, and his disciples        and a large crowd went with him. As he approached the gate of          the town, a man who had died was being carried out.  He was           his mother’s only son, and she was a widow; and with her was a      large crowd from the town.  When the Lord saw her, he had compassion for her and said to her, “Do not weep.”  Then he came forward and touched the bier, and the bearers stood still.  And he      said, “Young man, I say to you, rise!”  The dead man sat up and       began to speak, and Jesus gave him to his mother.  Fear seized           all of them; and they glorified God, saying, “A great prophet has      risen among us!” and “God has looked favorably on his people!”         This word about him spread throughout Judea and all the       surrounding country.
