You're never too old

14/2/2018
Yes it's valentines day and we're both stick at home with the weather wet and windy outside. I'll leave the rest of Ch 11 & 12 for now because nothing particularly exiting happens; just more ancestry So now Abram's father had died and Abram was 75 when God told him to lave his country and blindly go where he was led by God. I sometimes wish God would have a clear word to me, as to where I am to go and what I was to do. Abram was led first to Canaan, where Gold told him he would have the land and many decedents there. So Abram built an alter and on to Bethel and Ai on the east.  Then southwards to Negeb. At that time there was a famine in the land (you'd think that may be God would lead them away from the famine, but that's just me!) and Abram went to Egypt to live.  Now his wife Sarai was very beautiful and Abram feared the Egyptians would want to kill him in order to have her; so he asked her to say she was his sister.  now I suddenly see a chink in Abram's Armour. His fear of the Egyptians caused him to lie and mistrust God  (so he is human after all). o Abram an entourage got escorted out of Egypt when pharaoh found out, because all his cattle and crops were dying. So Adios Egypt and back to the Negeb and then back to Bethel and Ai. There Abram and Lot parted company because they were both rich now and needed a lot of land so. Abram seeming the wisest of them all said lets split up and you choose wherever you want to go and I'll go the other way.  It seems to me that Abram seemed to understand God better and I think it'd because of his unending trust and his constant worship; setting up shrines wherever he went probably gave him the better part.  God told Abram after Lot had left.  to look anywhere he could see and that would be the inheritance for him and his family.
Seems like I need to build a few alters and pray and worship more to find out what God wants for my life.

Bye for now
