I do not understand how God brought Isaac and Rebekah together. There is a lot about Old Testament culture to which I cannot relate. But the people demonstrated how God can use our present to create our future. Abraham and Isaac had so much faith in God that they trusted a servant to find a lifelong partner for Isaac. Rebekah had compassion for a stranger at the well, which opened up a new direction for her life—one she could hardly have imagined. The nameless servant reminds me that those who work for the Lord will never be forgotten for their service. How can we emulate these traits in our own lives?
