Genesis 14:1–4, 10–17, 21–24

Countless small-hearted people keep score, hold grudges, and look down on others with critical, envious eyes. They manipulate and control people. Sadly, in our fallen world, small-hearted people are the norm, making the few genuinely greathearted people stand out all the more. They look beyond the past, sacrifice for others, and overflow with humility. All the while, they shun the limelight and give God alone the glory. Among their thin ranks stands Abram, who not only gave his shortsighted nephew the choicest land but also rescued him when his choice got him into trouble! We can learn a lot from Abram, the greathearted.
