Some Thoughts After Reading The Book of Genesis.
Adam
If you’re hiding — God is looking
If you’re feeling shame — God is covering
If you think God won’t have you back — He will
Cain
If you think you’re only responsible for you — You’re not. (Am I my brothers keeper?)
If you think you’ve screwed up so bad God won’t bless you — He will (Great, Great, Great Grandfather of Noah)
Noah
If you think your vice is bigger than your virtue — It’s not (Noah was a drunk, who had a remarkable amount of faith)
Babylon (Tower of Babel)
If you think you can take out God — You can’t
Abraham
If you think God won’t come through on his promises — He will
If you’ve doubted, took things in your own hands — He still will
Just because you don’t trust God always doesn’t mean you won’t trust him ever
Isaac
If you’re the father to a highly dysfunctional family — God can still come through
Jacob
If you have have a past and are running — God is waiting
If you want to wrestle — God is game
Esau
If you have been deeply wronged — Forgiveness is possible
Joseph
If you’re the victim — God is with you
If you’re the victim again — God is still with you
If you have been deeply wronged — Forgiveness is possible
If you feel the pressure of power — God is with you
