1. Abraham, father of the faith, promised to be father of nations, didn't even have a piece of land to bury his wife. I asked myself if I could still walk with the LORD if I were Abraham. It just seemed hopeless after so many years, none of the covenant was realized. Yet Abraham kept walking with the LORD, no matter what. Everything went perfectly for Isaac and Rebekah today. :) Poor Isaac didn't know how many seven years ahead of him, yet. :))
2. There was a secret disclosed by Jesus today. The secret was that many pagans will join Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob at the feast in the kingdom of heaven. The bad news was many Isralites by birth will be thrown out. What a firm and encouraging message!

4. I'd like to join Mike in memorizing Prov. 3:5-6:
"Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding;
