What does this show me about God?
- Abram gives away the best land, and God promises him everything he can see. What does that say about how God treats people who let go?
What does it show me about people — and about me?
- Why is it so hard to let somebody else choose first?
What will I obey this week?
- Who will you let go first this week — in a game, at the table, in the queue?
Who will I tell?
- Who needs to see somebody stop fighting over who gets what?
Grow
Growth is God's part, not yours. Do the cycle faithfully and trust Him to give the growth (1 Corinthians 3:6–7).
Pray
God, Abram let his nephew choose the best land first. Thank you for taking care of him anyway. Help me stop grabbing and let somebody else go first.
