Who is God? All hail the power.... (part 20)

Genesis 24:12-50 teaches me about doing the will of God and getting the rich blessings in return. It is the story of Rebekah  and how she came to be the bride of Isaac. Abraham was in such relationship with God that God gave him instruction and Abraham carried things out. God knows who I need in my life. It may not be the best relationship in the world, it may even seem like a wrong relationship, but God knows what He is doing and He guides me every step of the way. There is a reason for the people God puts in my life, mostly to show me how to grant mercy, how to love without condition, how to love in spite of my feelings. There is good and bad in all of us. We may have been created in God’s image, but because of the free will we can then choose to do the wrong thing and so often do unless we turn our will to God. And that is another reason for the people in our lives. God gave us a free will, but the purpose of that will is to decide whether or not we will ask God to bless us with wisdom of how to deal with the people in our lives or whether we chose to do it on our own.
