"The importance of trusting the right thing”
Genesis 24

Pastor Nate Herrlin

“It doesn’t matter what you believe, as long as you believe in something.”

1. WHAT are Abraham’s priorities?

2. Why are THESE his priorities?

Abraham’s priorities:
- Isaac needs a wife from his own people
- Isaac must NOT go back to their homeland

“Before he had finished praying…”

“Hesed” = loyal love, covenant love

The 4 characters in the story who display “hesed”:

1. Abraham
2. Eliezer
3. Yahweh
4. Rebekah

What does it mean to trust in God’s “hesed” love today?

It means trusting God with the things that matter most to me.

In what way do I need to trust God’s hesed love?

My Next Steps with God this week:

- Is God asking me to let go of something I need to put in His hand?

- Is God inviting me to trust Him on a deeper level with something very specific?

- Other?
