Breakthrough

S ~ Then it happened, as he drew back his hand, that his brother came out unexpectedly; and she said, "How did you break through? This breach be upon you!" Therefore his name was called Perez. Genesis 38:29

O ~ Very interesting story - I wonder if this has ever happened before or again. It seems impossible to breakthrough and be first. This placed Perez in the genealogy of the Christ. It was a matter of destiny. God knows the end of a thing from the beginning, and if needed, can change it's beginning so it will end up where He has planned.

A ~ I simply can't give credit to Perez alone, but to God who placed this desire/need in his life even before he could be conscious of it. Why do we do the Godly things we do? Because He has ordained it.

P ~ Father, may I be passionate about your plan for my life, and may I help, not hinder, all you have prepared for me.
