Reflection – Rebekah: God’s Choice for Isaac

Eliezer and Rebekah

Evening was approaching and Rebekah got the water jar and headed for the well.  She could see from a distance that there were a number of camels and a couple men standing near the well.  As she approached the well, one of the men asked if he could have a drink of water from her jar.

She gave the man a drink and without thinking, she heard the words come out of her mouth, “I’ll water your camels, also.”  There were ten camels, each capable of drinking thirty gallons of water; but, Rebekah didn’t think about the work.  Something in her spirit compelled her to finish the task.

Rebekah was unaware that the man who asked her for a drink had prayed to God for guidance in finding a future wife for Isaac.  Her action was confirmation that she was God’s choice for Isaac.  [Reflection based on the Bible Reference – Genesis 24:1-46]
