Two hard things: return & submit s1e82 Gen 16:4
Manage episode 429032265 series 2851897
The spiritual life is all about ENTRUSTING when it is HARD. If it was easy, anybody could do it. Hagar is asked to do the hardest thing: SUBMIT. She's also asked to give evidence of it by returning. Along with forgiveness, these make the top-five of spiritual difficulty.
Hagar will beautifully adorns herself in submission. I think she teaches the concept to Sarai who is later lauded for demonstrating it. In so doing these hard things, Hagar helps Sarai, and all of us who admire her.
