Genesis 12-14

It took me about 12 minutes to read this passage. Apperance is everything to people. After heeding God's call Abram receiveds God's blessings; first in protection and provisions, then in possessions. When wealth is measured in heards and servants Abram is found with over 300 men of fighting capacity. That is potentially 1,000 servants living with him. The size of his herds must have been in the thousands as well. Abram knew that God had provided this wealth. And he wanted no one to threaten God position as provider. That is why he rejected the reward from Sodom's king. We need to be just as warry of other people's actions in our lives. Anything that could take away God credit for the changes in our life should be rejected.
