Elijah was afraid, so he got up and fled for his life to Beer Sheba in Judah. He left his servant there,
while he went a day’s journey into the wilderness. He went and sat down under a shrub and asked the LORD to take his life:“I’ve had enough! Now, O LORD, take my life. After all, I’m no better than my ancestors.”
He stretched out and fell asleep under the shrub. All of a sudden an angelic messenger touched him and said,“Get up and eat.”
