I love seeing examples of righteous women in the scriptures. ⁣

Women who are named and who do things and work to draw closer to the Lord. ⁣

The Old Testament is a unique book of scriptures because we get quite a few beautiful, powerful examples of righteous women. ⁣

I have loved studying Rebekah this week. ⁣

She gives me so many attributes to look up to, and one that I want to mention is found in Genesis 25:22. ⁣

Rebekah was finally pregnant, after years of dealing with infertility. ⁣

But she was pregnant with twins, and she could feel the struggle of these two babies within her womb as she carried them. ⁣

And so what did she do? ⁣

“She went to inquire of the Lord”. (Genesis 25:22)⁣

I love this powerful yet simple reminder from Rebekah that when we have questions, we can take them straight to the Lord. ⁣

I can relate to Rebekah a lot right now. In my personal life, I have some questions about what the future may look like.

We can ask, and then we can receive answers.⁣

It’s a beautiful yet simple pattern.

Have you inquired of the Lord recently?

“Please believe how very much your loving Heavenly Father wants to bless you. But… we must ask for His help.” – J. Devn Cornish

Happy Studying!
