Learn to focus on what is left not what is lost

Loading player...
Pastor Gwen Matshoba teaches the importance of focusing on what remains rather than dwelling on what has been lost. In 1 Kings, we read about the widow of Zarephath, in 2 Kings, the widow's oil, in Mark, the widow’s offering, and in Luke, Jesus resurrecting the son of a widow. In each of these accounts, they are referred to as widows because they have experienced loss. The widow in 2 Kings, when asked by Elisha what she had in her house, initially said "nothing at all." Similarly, you might feel as though you've lost everything today, but just as Jesus restored Job's life, He is able to restore all that seems lost in yours.
