I feel like I am on a rollercoaster when I read about Abram.
Like at the beginning of the ride when you know it's about to get crazy awesome.
I can't help but think about what he must have felt while God promised him that he would be the father to the descendants of the world.
I bet he felt like life was actually about to BEGIN.
In Genesis 13 Lot and Abram spilt up.
It's an amblicable spilt and they go about their lives raising cattle and what not. Then a war, basically, breaks out and Lot is capture. Abram, being the dependable guy that he is gos after and rescues Lot.
Then in the chapter 15 Abram makes a sacrifice to God and the Lord sends him a vision of what the future will be like on the ver land where Abram is standing.
How crazy that must have felt.
To know that you will one day have more children then sand on the beach and they will live in the land where you are now standing 400 hundred years from now.
God doesn't mess around when he says he blesses those that he loves.
