—Genesis 13:14-17
by: Tabatha Pethtel.
Abram told Lot to choose which land he desired and Lot chose what he deemed the best. But God appeared to Abram and told him to look North, South, East, and West and promised that all he saw would be given to him. Even though Lot had claimed the “best” land, God had more in store for Abram—descendants as uncountable as the dust. This passage reminds me that no matter what I have in life, abundant or less, it is a blessing from God. That makes me realize that God has given me so much more than worldly goods and materials. He has given me new life.
