    When God asked Abraham to sacrifice his ONLY son, whom he loves so much— a son he had to wait forever to get from the same God, Abraham didn't hesitate. In fact, Abraham prepared his son for the sacrifice.
    Genesis 22:6-8 says,
    "So Abraham placed the wood for the burnt offering on Isaac’s shoulders, while he himself carried the fire and the knife. As the two of them walked on together, Isaac turned to Abraham and said, “Father?”
    “Yes, my son?” Abraham replied.
    “We have the f...ire and the wood,” the boy said, “but where is the sheep for the burnt offering?”
    “GOD WILL PROVIDE a sheep for the burnt offering, my son,” Abraham answered. And they both walked on together"

    Abraham was actually going to kill his son because God said so!
    But here's what I love about the story;
    verse 11 says at that moment the angel of the Lord called to Abraham from heaven and told him not to lay a hand on the boy.
    And God PROVIDED a ram for the sacrifice - just as Abraham TRUSTED HIM to do.
    God didn't want the boy killed, God was only testing Abraham's faith in Him. As we all know, Abraham PASSED the test with flying colors.
    I don't know what you are facing today, perhaps God is testing YOUR faith. Hold on in faith long enough to pass the test.
    For after passing the test, unimaginable miracles happens. ‪#‎lookForwardToThem‬.
    May God continue to bless you and your families!
