The account of Rebekah in Genesis 24 provides a compelling model of godly character through three primary attributes. While Scripture acknowledges her physical beauty, it emphasizes that her true attractiveness stemmed from her inner qualities - moral purity and reverence for God. This serves as a powerful reminder that genuine beauty flows from godly character rather than external appearances.Rebekah's interaction with Abraham's servant showcases extraordinary kindness and diligence. When asked for water, she went above and beyond by offering to water his camels as well - a task requiring 80-100 trips to the well and carrying approximately 2,000 pounds of water. Her actions demonstrate that followers of God should consistently show grace to others through friendly interactions, humble service, and genuine hospitality. In a world pursuing comfort and ease, her example challenges believers to embrace hard work and dedication in serving others, while maintaining a character that reflects Christ.
