Gnats and flies can ruin a picnic. You spend more time shooing them away than you do enjoying your lunch and enjoying your company. At least, they are just a nuisance. Our passage today mentions something far worse than a mere irritation. Vultures came down on Abram’s sacrifice, and he had to shoo them away. We can learn a lot about waiting on the Lord while we shoo away the enemies.
