S- “When the men of that place asked him about his wife, he (Isaac) said, ‘she is my wife.’ He thought, ‘The men of this place might kill me on account of Rebekah, b/c she is beautiful.’” Genesis 26.7
O- In Genesis 20.11-12, Isaac’s father Abraham claimed that Sarah was his sister. Abimelech just happened to the king. I find it ironic that Isaac uses the same playbook as his dad to the same king, Abimelech. Isaac was truly a chip off the old block.
A- This passage challenges me to reflect on the things I do and have done. Have I made the same mistakes as my dad? I love my dad, but am I a ‘chip off the old block’ in some wrong areas? I need to really reflect and grow in a positive way.
P- Lord, open my eyes to my actions and my dad’s actions and help me not to repeat what you don’t want repeated. May I learn and grow so you are given the Glory. Amen
