A Covenant is a promise that you pledge with YOURSELF. That is, your personal bodily integrity. If the promise is broken, somebody dies.
Abram and Sarai, surrounding the conception of Ismael, are anything but All-Stars. Nobody does their job well before God. They serve to remind us to Entrust in the HARD STUFF. Fortunately the middle of the story is not the end of their story.
God is a great covenant keeper. He pays the penalty toward our failures to keep up our end of the bargain. Go be an All-Star today.
