2 Kings 8:1-6
The woman whose son Elisha had restored to life, listened to the words of Elisha went away and stayed in the land of the Philistines seven years for famine in the land of Israel.
At the end of the seven years she came back from Philistines and went to the king to beg for her house and land. The king was talking to Gehazi, the servant of the man of God, and had talked about how Elisha restored the dead to life. The king asked the woman about it, and she told him.
The the kings assigned an official to her case and said to him, "Give back everything that belonged to her, including all the income from her land from the day she left the country until now.
This is the second part of the story told. This belong to the time before Gehazi's leprosy.
Why?
A woman toke care the man of God, then she received many good feedback from the man of God. All she had were more than the world can give her. A blessed woman in Israel. The love to the man of God was came from her heart. And she did not want any feedback from the man of God.
Your are my Lord; apart from you I have no good thing.(Psalm 16:2)
Blessed are all who fear the Lord, who walk in his ways(Psalm 128:1)
Blessed are they whose ways are blameless, who walk according to the law of the Lord.(Psalm 119:1)
How?
Do to the servant of the Lord when I found they needed, the love comes from our heart because it is my response to the Lord's love.
