Not Holding Out

 Genesis 16: New American Standard Bible (NASB)
2 So Sarai said to Abram, “Now behold, the LORD has prevented me from bearing children. Please go in to my maid; perhaps I will obtain children through her.” And Abram listened to the voice of Sarai.

Do you see right away what went wrong in the happening of verse 2? Go to my maid???

And you know what fostered that debacle? Don’t you?

Accusing God of evil!

Let’s not do that today. Let’s not ‘help’ GOD that way today or tomorrow. Let’s not assume that He is holding out on us even though the relief, the provisions, the blessing we want is long in coming to us.

You will recall that GOD kept His promise (Issac) and that Sarai and Abram’s debacle is still causing havoc today.

May we learn from them!

Numbers 23:19 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)
19 God is not a man who lies, or a son of man who changes His mind. Does He speak and not act, or promise and not fulfill?

Psalm 84: 21st Century King James Version (KJ21)
11 For the LORD God is a sun and shield; the LORD will give grace and glory; no good thing will He withhold from them that walk uprightly.
via Ps 84:11 – Passage Lookup – 21st Century King James Version – BibleGateway.com.

No Good Thing Will He Withhold from them who walk uprightly.  I urge you to ponder that.

Loving you and thanking you for your faithfulness, Kathie

LaJuanna is having a bone marrow test on Tuesday and asked that we pray for her. And her husband, Jim, discovered a potentially serious problem too. She covets our prayers for the both of them.

She also passed along a request to us from her cousin.
