God’s Ass?

Book Signing~ Thomas Mcswain
 Imagine God having a conversation in Heaven about Ishmael. The angels ask, “Can you believe he just did that?” God responds, “Yeah, he’s an ass!” Ishmael, a wild-ass of a man, has a great start in life as the sole heir to a herding mogul’s fortune until Isaac, the promised successor, is born and displaces him. After Abraham gives Hagar and Ishmael the boot, they find themselves in a pretty prickly predicament. Hagar runs out of resources and places her son underneath a bush in the wilderness. Ishmael may be an ass but he’s God’s ass;God promises to bless Ishmael in spite of his questionable past and reckless tendencies. God specializes in using less than stellar people.
