Wells of Blessings

A man who is weak in his devotions and worldly in his desires will inevitably be wrong in his decisions. When a man is keenly acquainted with God, he will be divinely restrained from making major wrong choices. Issac fought no great battles, built no mighty cities, erected no imposing monuments. He quietly dug wells, and by doing so, he simply left a trail of blessings behind him everywhere he went. Read the story in Genesis 26:15-35.  Never make lies a refuge for protection, for a harbor of lies is no real port in a storm. Wells were a source of life and refreshment and Issac was symbolically ministering Christ to needy souls by digging wells. An altar which symbolized his personal relationship with God was no longer sufficient, he now wanted to share his relationship with God with others so he dug wells. He was making life giving water available to all.
