Plan B
Sunday, July 17th, Genesis 17: Yes, but your wife Sarah will bear you a son, and you will call him Isaac. I will establish my covenant with him as an everlasting covenant for his descendants after him. Calling and commissioning often come on God’s terms and timing, not ours. Our baptism is a calling, not magic. We are called, but we also have free will. Sometimes our free will choices get in the way of God’s plan A. When that happens God usually goes to plan B. Ishmael was plan B. Has there been a time in your life when you just couldn’t wait for God to act any longer? What did you do, and how did it work? Then again, perhaps what God is waiting for is our action. My advice, pray your hardest and then do your best. If it is a mistake, God will go to plan B.
