Elijah and 850 idolaters gathered on Mount Carmel. It was the last battle to distinguish the true God from the gods they served. At that time, what Elijah did moved me greatly.
“With the stones he built an altar in the name of the LORD, and he dug a trench around it large enough to hold two seahs of seed.” He arranged the wood, cut the bull into pieces and laid it on the wood. Then he said to them, “Fill four large jars with water and pour it on the offering and on the wood.” “Do it again,” he said, and they did it again. “Do it a third time,” he ordered, and they did it the third time. The water ran down around the altar and even filled the trench. (1Ki 18:32–35)
It is really hard to light a fire on a wet object. It is impossible to fill up four jars with water and pour them out on burnt offerings three times without having 100% faith in God. In this age when we should trust Heavenly Mother and follow Her, we reflect on ourselves whether we have absolute faith in Her. Removing our thoughts completely, we’ll rely entirely on Heavenly Mother and accomplish the last gospel mission entrusted to us.
