The blessing of God comes as sheer grace to Abraham, to the Galatians, and to us.
Reflect
Paul is reflecting back on Abraham, prior to his circumcision. He links belief with righteousness. Abraham places his trust in God. Abraham’s children are those whose identity is derived from a faith that trusts in God’s promises. How are you trusting God’s promises?
