July 20, 2008:

1. Dr. Allen Ross identifies in Abraham, in Genesis 1,6 a cycle of events which occur when we get impatient over God’s delays:
-there are moments of weakness, which lead to
-alternative plans (to God’s) not characterized by faith, which result in
-human efforts to assist God in fulfilling His promises, which causes
-complications in our lives

2. When we take matters into our own hands and do not wait for God:
-we fail to take proper leadership
-we hurt those we love
-we hurt those we use
-we cause lingering complications in our lives and the lives of others
