Genesis 13:1-18
Abram is elder than Lot but Abram let Lot chose the land he preferred. So lot chose the land people looks good land with water and like garden of the Lord.
Abram lived in the land of Cannan, Lot loved in the plain of Jordan and st out toward the east.
Abram moved his tents and went to live near the great trees of Mamre at Hebron, where he built an altar to the Lord. Third altar of Abram for the Lord.
Lot's choice: Increasing flocks an herds precipitate the lat break in family ties. Lot, generously given the choice by his uncle, selects the fertile pasture of the Jordan Valley.
Why?
Abram is humble before the men, and he loves his family so given the choice to Lot.
The place people looks good, but the blessing of the Lord is more important and human perspective. Abram believed that God blesses him.
How?
Focus on the Lord, it is more important than personal situation, God can made the worse to blessing.
