Genesis 24
Inspired thots
Though the chapter may be long, it is a beautiful love story between Isaac and Rebecca.
But it is also a very detailed record of how a righteous heart like Abraham is set in its living. Details are recorded and lived out to find success in the assigned task by Abraham's servant, whose name was withheld.
But his loyalty and attitude towards his master are great; he set about his task in full obedience although he is old and the journey is long but he was the most trusted servant of Abraham. He knew his master's heart; he lived to serve his master well.
Rebecca and Laban were so hospitable to a stranger; they welcomed Abraham's servant generously. They were quick to discern the hand of God working in their lives and obeyed immediately. Such a simple life they took on.
What happened today? Everyone is concern about Big Bucks and Self. The focus is diverted. No longer is God their centre of life! How sad!
