Often we take too narrow a view of life like the little twig on the end of furthest limb of a tree. It is vital with buds and blossoms full and fragrant. However, it would be foolish for that little twig to say it had no need of the limb. Cut from the tree it could not survive a single day but it would wither and die. Its beauty and fragrance gone. To be fragrant foliage we must remain attached to the source of our strength. We must study the words of the prophets in the scriptures.
Genesis 12:1 is quoted in Acts 7:3. Genesis 12:3 is quoted in Acts 3:25 and Galatians 3:8. Genesis 13:15 is quoted in Galatians 3:16. Genesis 15:5 is quoted in Romans 4:18. Genesis 15:6 is quoted in Romans 4:3; Galatians 3:6; and James 2:23.
