God said that He would be Abram’s reward. Abram, or Abraham as he was later called, was thinking, as we are apt to think, that God will give us something as our reward. It is true that God does reward us by helping us in various ways here on earth. And we know He will reward those who trust Him with special blessings in heaven. But our greatest reward here on earth is to have a wonderful God in heaven. And when we get to heaven, the greatest reward of all will be God Himself. Let’s trust Him today. HE is your reward today and always.
