SING O BARREN WOMAN! PART ONE
Sarai
Genesis 11:30 Now Sarai was barren; she had no children.
Genesis 11:30 Now Sarai was barren; she had no children.
Sarai's story is an extraordinary Biblical reference to barrenness, and with good reason too. It is the perfect representation of the modern day's Christian reaction to the situations they cannot fix.
It is the ideal case for understanding what desperation and frustration can do to man when they take their toll on them.
Sarai does three very interesting actions:
1. The Quick Fix.
Sarai is a schemer like many a believer, and she enjoys fixing things. She loves doing things her way even though it does not always pan out.
So when she realizes she is barren, she decides to pull a stunt - her quick-fix nature comes into play! Enter Haggai the Egyptian maid!
Yet what seemed like a good scheme starts to go south - and fast!
Today your life may be a façade of backfired fixes but I speak hope to you.
