Genesis 22

Abraham's obedience caught my attention so much. When God told him to go take his son up to the mountain and offer him as a sacrifice, he didn't hesitate. He went without complaints, without asking God WHY... he just went, out of obedience.

How many times do have to barter with God just so we can get our way? Maybe what he wants us to sacrifice is a little too much for us to give up? Too uncomfortable?

It's incredible to see how much faith Abraham has in God, and I hope it encouraged you the same way it encouraged me. Hopefully, we continue to put our faith in God whenever he asks us to do something that we may not understand. Sometimes we are put in seasons of testing but it's important to know that "God will provide" just like God provided for Abraham so that he wouldn't have to kill his son.

Let's continue to trust God with all that we have, because all in all, everything belongs to Him.
