Jordan - Genesis 21
Random fact for the day: Christians and Jews claim to be descendants of Isaac and Muslims understand themselves to be descendants of Ishmael. Right off the bat, there is jealousy and hatred as Sarah in this chapter, has Abraham throw Hagar and Ishmael out and without God's help Ishmael would have died of thirst in the wilderness. Yet, God loves and protects both boys which says a lot about what our relationship as people and nations should be today. We are one in the Spirit, we are one in the Lord.
