Servant Help

He was an army general; but leprous…
He was a husband; but leprous…
He was probably a father; but was leprous…
He was well known; but leprous…
 

In plain language he was a leper
And lepers don’t get to become army chief
I doubt the possibility of marriage to a non-leper
But he seem to overcome the limits of his disability

However, no matter how prosperous he becomes
Leprosy seem to douse his accomplishments
He must have tried all possible to get better
Help will come; but not the way expected…

She was a servant girl who served Naaman's wife
She must have distinguished herself 
So when she advised to visit Elisha it was obeyed
What if the slave girl had been with them earlier?

The people I need Lord send them early
The sooner I get the helper of destiny the better
A common prayer with me is speed
The Lord is not slow concerning His promise

When he got to Elisha he expected better treatment
At least a welcome based on his pedigree
But the instruction came behind the door
And it was to go bathe in a dirty river seven times

He wanted to turn back in anger
Thankfully another servant spurred him on
He kept his gaze on what he sought
Not on the shame or inconvenience attached

We all need these precious helpers
They may not have big titles, be educated or exposed
They probably are within your reach

I pray you identify and heed their counsel
