Day 7...(Genesis 14,15; Psalm 7) "You go Right and I will go Left"

The Bible speaks in practical terms in today's reading. As Abram and Lot (both with abundant livestock and possessions) try to co-exist on limited space it does not work out. Abram says..."you go left and I will go right." Abram comes to the rescue of Lot after he is captured. After the successful liberation we find the origin of tithing..." And blessed be God Most High, who delivered your enemies into your hand." Then Abram gave him a tenth of everything." The Bible is difficult to understand in some readings but not today. 1) finding your own space 2) going left and right 3) loyalty and bravery for family 4) tithing.
