The Axe That Floated
A young prophet borrows an axe to help build a bigger home by the Jordan — and watches in horror as the iron head flies off the handle and sinks in the river. It wasn't even his! But Elisha knows that God cares about small troubles too: he cuts a stick, throws it in the water, and the iron floats. A true story about a God who notices lost things and troubled hearts. Drawn from 2 Kings 6.
