Abraham and Lot Separate

genesis 13 v 8 - 9
then Abram said to lot "let there be no strife between you and me, and between your herdsmen and my herdsmen;
for we are kinsmen. 9. Is not the whole land before you? Separate yourself from me. If you take the left hand, then i will go to the right; or if you take the right hand then i will go to the left"

The story is simple, this was a wise instance of conflict resolution, Abram as he was called then is the uncle to Lot his nephew.
Abram never stopped lot from acquiring wealth even while he stayed with him. He allowed lot gain enough cattle and expanded his now empire.
But something came up, may be because Lot has gained so many wealth that he has forgotten that that Abram is supposed to be his master, becasuse even at the start of Abrams journey to the unknown land that God will show him, God never told abram to take his nephew Lot.
But Abram did not see that as a betrayer from lot, even when lots herdsmen was always fighting over grazing field.
The complains has been coming to Abram so he decided to resolve it in a peaceful manner.
He called his nephew lot and gave him a choice.
Who does that this day?
He told Lot, please i dont want us to fight nor our herdsmen kill themselves over this, you are my nephew, therefore i urge you to take the right wing then i will take the left wing or you take the left wing then i will take the right wing.
As the story continues,thats from verse 10 - 16
Lot chosed to go the plain of sodom and gomorrha.
Because he saw that it was very rich and that his sheeps will have more to eat. Forgeting the fact that his own sheep has almost finished the plain of cannan while he stayed with Abram.
But Abram was not mad at Lot choice, rather he accepted it in good faith.
And God bless Abram from that day onward,
By changing his name from Abram to Abraham.And made him even more richer.
