God’s rescue of Lot from Sodom and Gomorrah in Genesis 19 and 20

I think the most interesting thoughts I have had in reading Genesis 19 and 20 are just “why” questions. I think of why was Lot in the city? Did Lot recognize the angels as angels? Why is the story of Lot’s daughters sleeping with Lot included? It seems like a lot of things that don’t add up. The story shows how depraved humans can be and how lost we are apart from God. I find encouragement when I see the faithfulness of God. God is faithful and remembers Abraham and He rescues Lot. I am so thankful that God is in control and faithful.
