This morning I'm pondering God's promises. Actually, I'm pondering Genesis 23 and the investment Abraham made into God's promises. He took responsibility for believing in the promise. By buying that field for a burial place, he was letting go of the past and believing for the future God promised. Even though he was old, he believed age had nothing to do with it and God's promise had everything to do with it, and he bought into the promise.
Powerful stuff as I take my life, plans, and thoughts, put them on the altar before the Lord, and ask,
"So, where do I need to invest? How do I take responsibility for the promises you've made to me? What do I let go of and what do I grab onto?"
This is exciting stuff. :-)
