Lent Day 40...Day 209 (2 Kings 5,6)..."Don't try this at Home!"

One of the most unusual stories in the Bible is one of the floating axe. How did iron float? Only God can do that! Here is the story...

"Then one of them said, "Won't you please come with your servants?" "I will," Elisha replied. And he went with them. They went to the Jordan and began to cut down trees. As one of them was cutting down a tree, the iron axhead fell into the water. "Oh, my lord," he cried out, "it was borrowed!" The man of God asked, "Where did it fall?" When he showed him the place, Elisha cut a stick and threw it there, and made the iron float. "Lift it out," he said. Then the man reached out his hand and took it."

Don't try this at home!
