God Tugs at Rebekah’s Heart

Rebekah Welcomes a Stranger

Have you ever felt a “tug” at your heart? When you make a decision because you’re drawn to something? Not only because you can make sense of everything, but there is something that is tugging at your heart?

That is what Rebekah experienced in today’s story. She felt God tugging at her heart to go to this stranger and welcome him. She felt God tugging at her heart to follow this stranger to leave everything she knew behind, to a place she has never been.

God sometimes speaks to by tugging at our hearts. But how do we know when it is God tugging at our hearts?

We hope you enjoy the story! Happy reflecting!

To Do This Week:

1. Read “God Tugs at Rebekah’s Heart” (p. 52, 53) with your children
2. Read Genesis 24:1-67
