The End of a Journey (33)

Genesis 25:7-10
Like many parents today, there are movies I have seen over and over and over again. Movies that, at one time, I could have quoted line for line. One of those movies was Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey. I loved the movie...the first dozen times. Too much of a good thing is a real.

Abraham had been on an incredible journey. For over 100 years Abraham followed the voice of God and pursued the promises of God. We have walked with him on this journey and today we come to the end of this amazing journey of faith as Abraham's wandering comes to an end and he arrives at home.
Chapter 25 opens by telling us that Abraham, after Sarah's death, took another wife. She bore him 6 sons. These sons would be the fathers of several Arabian tribes. When you take these 6 sons and the tribes that descend ...
