1. Give me success today (10-20).
Abraham's servant prepared gifts for the bride's family. Then he went to the town of Nahor. As he waited by the village well where all the women came to draw water, he prayed. He asked the Lord for a girl who would volunteer to water his 10 thirsty camels (12-14). This would be God's sign. He was asking God for a girl who was not selfish, but thoughtful and hard-working. A beautiful girl came to the well just before he finished praying. He asked her for a drink of water, and she graciously complied--and offered to water his camels!

2. Without saying a word, he watched (21-27).
This beautiful girl seemed to be God's answer to his prayer, but Abraham's servant did not rush. He waited on God. When he found that she was Rebekah, the virgin daughter of Abraham's nephew, he knew that she was the one. He bowed his head and thanked God. It is not easy to wait on God's step-by-step leading, but the man of mission must not get ahead of God.
