thought for today
Its hard to think ourselves into Abraham and Sarah's world and mindset that would make them take this course of action. It certainly leads to an odd situation for them. Is Pharoah's hospitality genuine? Or is it in a sense payment for the supposed aquisition of Sarah? God's intervention brings all parties to their senses. Perhaps there is a call on us to offer and receive true hospitality without any strings in either direction. In doing so we might be learning more about the width and length and height and depth of Christ's love.
