With the Old Testament is that so much of the Old Testament points toward the coming Savior. With Abraham and Sarah it shows us that our timing is different that God's timing but God's timing is always best, and right on time. Also with Judah and Tamar even though they sinned God was still able to use them, and use them in the line of people that would one day lead to Jesus God's only Son the one God sent to take the weight of sin upon Him, to live a sinless life, but to bare the cost of our sin, and die on the Cross. But because of God's grace rose three days later, allowing those who call upon His name to be saved.
With the Psalms it serves as a reminder to me of who God is and what he has done for me.
With Proverbs I am reminded the wisdom and lessons from the Bible still apply today even more so.
With the New Testament and Matthew it shows that even though Jesus could have chosen anybody to be His disciples He chose common fisherman to be some of the first. Showing that God can use anybody to reach people for Jesus. Everyday people really can make a difference for the Kingdom of God.
