Well now, here is an interesting episode in the life of Abram. Definitely not one of Abram’s better days.
If only he had said no to Sarai’s offer — what a different world this would be. But Abram is guilty of thinking God’s needs a little help getting the job done. And the result? The child of the flesh — the product of human will — not the child of promise.
But this product of human will cannot overcome the will of God and in the manifold wisdom of God even our sins are unfolded into a grand plan serving higher ends than we can imagine. Hence the name of this sermon from Genesis 16 — Wheels within Wheels.
