Genesis 15 & 16
Inspired thots
All things are under God's control and plans; hence, it is wise to SUBMIT to what He has willed instead of going against it.
I must remember this in order to submit rather than going on my own ways and thoughts. Bias and ignorance are detrimental to my wellbeing.
The Lord SEES it all - past, current and future.
He saw Abram and Hagar's future. He saw their current situation - Abram without an heir and Hagar being mistreated by Sarai. But God did not blame Sarai. God is so gracious.
Abram listened to Sarai in their eagerness to get an heir. All the while, they were faithful and content with each other until God promised abundant riches and descendants. Then Abram and Sarai tried to 'help' God or 'speed' up His plans for them.
hmmmm....
Better to wait patiently and submit.
A daily time out with the Lord Jesus, to hear Him speak to ME. I am asking the Lord to share HIS thoughts with ME, to teach me more about Himself, and how I can be drawn closer to Him... for 'His thoughts are not my thoughts and neither are His ways my ways' Isaiah 55:8,9. This blog is not a theological exegesis. This blog is to record down the INSIGHTS & INSPIRATIONS of God's Word to me; speaking LIFE into my life for Abundant life! :)
