By steadfast love and faithfulness iniquity is atoned for, and by the fear of the LORD one turns away from evil.
Proverbs 16:6 ESV
These are the two primary components of our salvation. God's grace provides the chesed and emet through which Yeshua's blood atones for our sins, and we provide repentance. Note that atonement comes first. Repentance is necessary for salvation, but without atonement, no repentance would ever be sufficient.
Before he had finished speaking, behold, Rebekah, who was born to Bethuel the son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother, came out with her water jar on her shoulder.
#genesis 24:15 #chayeisarah
God knows what we need and answers the faithful before they call.
Generosity is a prominent characteristic of God's favored people. Consider Abraham, Sarah, Lot, Rebekah, Jacob...
When Eliezer arrived at Laban's home in Haran, Laban recognized that the man was wealthy and welcomed him into his house, but didn't do anything for him. Eliezer had to care for his own camels and men.
Contrast Ephrom (who sold the cave to Abraham), Laban, and Rebekah. Ephrom feigned generosity in order to assimilate Abraham. Laban feigned generosity in order to get some reward from Eliezer and as long as it didn't cost him anything. Rebekah, on the other hand, was generous with no expectation of reward.
Genesis 24
In Genesis 24, Abraham sent his trusted servant, Eliezer, to find a bride for Isaac. Eliezer, who knew the heart of Abraham and of YHWH, asked God for a sign: "When I ask her for a drink of water, she will also offer to water my camels." Rebekah did exactly that in spectacular fashion, and she didn't stop there! This story reveals three important character traits of Rebekah, traits that God wants to see in ALL of his people.
