Today we celebrate the memory of the Holy Prophet Elisha. Prophet Elisha was a disciple of Prophet Elijah and when the latter ascended to heaven, Prophet Elisha asked for double the blessing that Prophet Elijah would receive in Heaven. He was promised this and Elijah let down his clock, leaving it to Elisha. This was the start of his prophetic service. Through his prayers, Elisha divided the Jordan River, just like Moses and the Red Sea, he turned a salty, undrinkable spring into sweet, as well as many other miracles.

A certain critic -- for such men, I regret to say, do exist -- made the nasty remark about my last novel that it contained 'all the old Wodehouse characters under different names.' He has probably by now been eaten by bears, like the children who made mock of the prophet Elisha: but if he still survives he will not be able to make a similar charge against Summer Lightning. With my superior intelligence, I have out-generalled the man this time by putting in all the old Wodehouse characters under the same names. Pretty silly it will make him feel, I rather fancy.

This week we remember and celebrate St. Elisha, Prophet, whose name in Hebrew means "God is Salvation”. Carmelites look to Elijah as Father, leader and inspiration. The spirit of Elijah rested on Elisha and the word of the Lord was with him. So he set out from there, and found Elisha son of Shaphat, who was plowing. There were twelve yoke of oxen ahead of him, and he was with the twelfth. Elijah passed by him and threw his mantle over him. He left the oxen, ran after Elijah, and said, "Let me kiss my father and my mother, and then I will follow you." Then Elijah said to him, "Go back again; for what have I done to you?" He returned from following him, took the yoke of oxen, and slaughtered them; using the equipment from the oxen, he boiled their flesh, and gave it to the people, and they ate. Then he set out and followed Elijah, and became his servant.  [1 Kings 19:21] #feast #prophet #prophetelisha #elijah #prophetelijah #oldtestament #scripture #inspirationalquotes #catholic #christianity #carmelite #carmelites #1kings #prayer #faith #spirituality #vocation #calling #mission #religiouslife #salvation #kingdomofgod #jesus #christ #peace #hope #love #courage https://www.instagram.com/p/Cez9ygZN6YX/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
