17:13-14 Despite the woman’s dwindling supplies (17:12), Elijah asked her to serve him before herself and her son. Like the poor widow who gave two small coins (Luke 21:1-4), this woman was asked to give all that she had to the Lord’s prophet. True faithfulness means placing God’s Kingdom ahead of personal concerns (Matt 6:33).
