Isaac Meets Rebekah

Isaac meets Rebekah, illustrating God's timing and the importance of wisdom in life choices.

Are we attentive to God’s guidance in our decisions? Eliezer’s journey to find a wife for Isaac shows us the importance of trust, obedience, and wisdom. Entrusted with Abraham’s hopes, Eliezer prayed and watched for God’s leading. When he met Rebekah, her kindness and willingness made it clear that God guided the path. Their story reminds us that when we trust God and walk purposefully, He aligns our steps. Ephesians 5:15-16 urges us to live wisely and maximize our time. Like Eliezer, we can seek God’s presence in each decision, trusting He knows what is best. Today, let’s invite God to lead our choices and look for His hand in our lives. When we walk in faith and wisdom, God’s provision and timing unfold in ways that exceed our expectations.
