Story of Eliezer’s challenge is a familiar one.

Abraham sent Eliezer off with a task, “Find a suitable wife for my son Isaac.” How, though, could Eliezer be secure in the knowledge that the woman he chose would indeed measure up to the standards of the saintly Isaac?

To ensure that he would find the young woman, Eliezer came up with a plan. Hence was born the famous “camel test”: After his long travels, Eliezer would ask a young maiden for a sip of water, and if she offered to provide water for his camels as well, she would be the one!

When Eliezer and his men arrived at the well, they had with them many camels, so they’d be able to escort the future bride and all her possessions and servants back to Isaac. Surrounded by a group of able-bodied men, Eliezer did not appear as a helpless, weary chap begging for a drink. And Rebecca, the daughter of Bethuel, the ruler of Aram Naharaim, was a young woman of nobility, not a poor servant girl accustomed to lugging water from wells. But this is precisely where Eliezer was able to get a glimpse of the righteous Rebecca.

From the moment he requested to take a sip from her jug, her generosity and greatness radiated in the most discreet and unassuming manner.

Rebecca immediately gave him a drink, then offered and drew water for all his camels. She saw an opportunity to do something kind, and swiftly went to work. She didn’t question or consider whether she was really needed; instead, she energetically continued filling multiple troughs with water, until the job of satisfying a whole herd of thirsty camels was completed . . . while Eliezer and his men watched her work unassisted.

Many ladies are still unmarried today cos they don't give. they don't add value to the lives of men. Rebecca was a value adding woman, She was more conscious of what she can give than the other way round. Even when Eliezer didn't look helpless, She offered to GIVE him Value. Not just that, She satisfied the whole herd of thirty camels with water too.

Many ladies today have so believed that they are meant to receive and never give. They get into relationships with the mindset of what they can get. Rebecca was not that kind of woman.

As a woman think of adding value. When you meet a man, do something positive in his life, don't be in a hurry to gain.

Be selfless, You never can tell who he is. Isaac was the son of a great man, Abraham, He had abundance. But Rebecca was a poor decent girl. She was highly favoured.

What can you give? Isaac married Rebecca Cos she passed the test of 'Giving value'
What can you give?

Nigerian Ladies, be the Rebecca of your time.
