Ultimate Reward

What is your ultimate reward in life? What are you seeking out or desiring?
In the Old Testament book of Genesis, Abraham was looking for a son, a descendent to carry forward his name so that he would be blessed in life.
Genesis tells us “The word of the Lord came to Abram in a vision: ‘Do not be afraid, Abram. I am your shield, your very great reward.’” (Genesis 15:1, NIV).
In seeking out God’s blessings and promises, we do not need to be afraid. God himself is our protector and our very great reward.
God is our provider. The one who gives us every blessing and reward in life is himself our ultimate reward.
May we have great courage and never be afraid, because God is with us, God will protect us, and God will keep his promises to us—God himself is our ultimate reward.
A Collect for Guidance: “Heavenly Father, in you we live and move and have our being: We humbly pray you so to guide and govern us by your Holy Spirit, that in all the cares and occupations of our life we may not forget you, but may remember that we are ever walking in your sight; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.” (Book of Common Prayer, 2019).
