Gen 16:15 And Hagar^H1904 bare^H3205 Abram^H87 a son:^H1121 and Abram^H87 called^H7121 his son's^H1121 name,^H8034 which^H834 Hagar^H1904 bare,^H3205 Ishmael.^H3458

The words which I got today, two different topics all together, but each one is so amazing in its own, a pagan gets blessed by the Lord because she was carrying the son of His chosen person, the angel of the Lord said the name to be given to the child is Ishmael, then we see Abraham giving the same name to the child, later on when God reminds Abraham of the promises He has in store for Abraham, Abraham says let it go to Ishmael, God tells Abraham, indeed He will bless the child, but Abraham will have an offspring from sarah, God was, is and always will be in the business of miracles, even if we are in a mess, He will turn it into a message

The second verse which caught my eyes was, Gen 18:2, Abraham saw three men and immediately realized that it was God! A man who can recognize his creator.
