A Test of the Heart…
Abraham was asked to sacrifice his son Isaac (whom God said his lineage would come from) and he had a 3 days journey to dwell on that! Sheesh! Abraham acted in obedience and meanwhile did the best that he could to make God’s statement of lineage and sacrificing Isaac makes sense in his head… (Heb 11:17-19) and the outcome was VERY different.I have often made assumptions of how God is going to do something in my life, simply so I can deal with what He has asked of me or what is going on. Then, when I am finally obedient… I find that I am wonderfully wrong! What a gift! He goes beyond what I can comprehend and paints a portrait with colors that I didn’t even know existed.
Step by step He brings us closer to Himself… what a Love 🙂 |
