The Oft Overlooked Opportunities of Life
Donald Cantrell
2 Kings 4:42-44
2Ki 4:42 KJV - And there came a man from Baalshalisha, and brought the man of God bread of the firstfruits, twenty loaves of barley, and full ears of corn in the husk thereof. And he said, Give unto the people, that they may eat.
2Ki 4:43 KJV - And his servitor said, What, should I set this before an hundred men? He said again, Give the people, that they may eat: for thus saith the LORD, They shall eat, and shall leave [thereof].
2Ki 4:44 KJV - So he set [it] before them, and they did eat, and left [thereof], according to the word of the LORD.

Kairos - This is the word I want to examine tonight. Kairos is a word for ''time'', but it could be translated as ''opportunity'' or ''chance''.
Kairos was a word for Time, but it drew its meaning from a Greek god by the same name. Kairos was the ''god of the fleeting moment''
Kairos was envisioned as a god on his tippy toes. He was on the move. He had wings on his feet. In one hand, he carried a razor blade. One of the most noticeable characteristics about him was his hair. He had a large, bushy forelock that hung out in front of his face. But the back side of his head was completely bald.
