We go about our busy lives and perhaps think a little on Him, but not really. It seems enough to just get by without pursuing trouble the likes of which mean getting to know God and going through the difficult things He places in our lives to help us grow and become even more committed. We walk around daily in this Ill get to you eventually, God attitude until God moves and shakes things up. Today, our reading tells us of Abrahams Descendants and life becomes ordinary, until we here of the births of Esau and Jacob and all the problems that caused poor Rebekah pain during their gestation. When push comes to shove, she finally goes to God and asks why this pregnancy is causing so many problems. Interestingly enough, God is ready with an answer. Hes been waiting for this moment. He has brought it about and has waited for Rebekah to finally ask. God is so like that. He sets up our lives so that we have to come to terms with Him and when He does that, He is willing and waiting for us to ask. We are broken and needing to be fixed and He wants to fix us. But He doesnt just sit around waiting for us to figure it out, He sets up circumstances so that we must come face to face with Him to get our answer. So today, let us face our circumstances honestly and talk with God earnestly about it all. Let us place ourselves humbly in His hands and finally ask the questions we have been dying to ask. Amen and Amen!!
