Day 17: Elijah

Tonight was fun because we had a two year old little girl roaming around our living room during Advent time. We read about the next of our prophets, Elijah. Now he led an interesting life- fed by ravens, challenging the prophets of Baal, and the vessel for many miracles. He heard God's still, small voice, walked with Him, and then was taken from this life by a fiery chariot. This is why it is Elijah we anticipate at our Passover table. This was an challenging image to create.
