The Servant Tells His Story

Gen 24:42-51

Gen 24:42-51

Questing. My experience is that when a person is on a quest, there are always people around who want to help.

What motivates human beings to support the questor?

The servant is on a quest. Abraham made clear the goal. He entered into the quest to fulfill this goal.

Now Abraham’s servant tells his story to the assembled relatives. It is as though the entire family is entranced. The question is never, “Should we let Rebekah go with this man?” – but more like “How can we not let Rebekah fulfill this quest?”.

Like Peter in the Duomo of Firenze, the universe beckons you in order to see your God-narrative revealed in time and space.

Let’s try not to be late.
