Evening — November 24 — 1 Kings 19:9

There Elijah entered a cave and spent the night. And the word of the LORD came to him, saying, “What are you doing here, Elijah?” — 1 Kings 19:9What are you doing here, Elijah?'. The prophet who'd stood boldly on mount carmel was now hiding in a cave, running from a woman. Fear does that. But God didn't abandon him—he came looking, asking questions that exposed his heart. Even elijah, a man of like passions, struggled with the fear of man. But the Lord knows our frame, remembers we're dust. He gently brings us back, not with thunder but with a still small voice. He didn't rebuke elijah into shape; he restored him. He'll do the same for you.
