How many times do we get little inklings from God to do something? "Buy that homeless man a meal." "Talk to that coworker about me." "Offer to pray for your grieving friend." Many times these are not difficult things that God asks us to do. Yet somehow, our human nature always seems to insist that if we do something for God, it has to be grand.
Naaman thought that God, through, Elisha, would do something awe-inspiring and miraculous for his leprosy. Yet all Elisha asked him to do was bathe in the Jordan. While Naaman went away angry, his servant said, rightly, "My father, it is a great word the prophet has spoken to you; will you not do it? Has he actually said to you, 'Wash, and be clean'?" (v. 13).
