The Christian entrepreneur talked about the story of Abraham and reminded people to trust in God’s perfect timing. So, in verses 2 and 3, he said to God, “Sovereign Lord, what can you give me since I remain childless and the one who will inherit my estate is Eliezer of Damascus? You have given me no children; so a servant in my household will be my heir.”
According to Rachel, Abraham somehow got frustrated with God’s timing. That’s why he asked Him if He would choose Eliezer to fulfill what He promised. However, God answered in verse 5, “Look up at the sky and count the stars—if indeed you can count them. So shall your offspring be.” It seemed like God reminded Abraham that He was faithful enough to fulfill His promises.

God’s Timing
Furthermore, Rachel asked the people if they had their own versions of Eliezer. She explained that it happened when Christians would wait on God to fulfill a promise and they would think that perhaps it won’t be fulfilled according to their own timing. Eventually, they would make a backup plan just in case God’s promise fails.
Moreover, she challenged everyone who was waiting on God’s timing to be truthful and surrender everything to God. She highlighted, “You see, maybe you’re thinking that God can do all these things. But maybe you’re not sure if He’ll do it for you. And I’m saying look at the stars. That is how well God would fulfill His promise.” In the caption of her post, she also added, “Remember that His timing is often very different from what we expect.”
