I have hidden Thy word in my heart.

Genesis 22. “Then God said, ‘Take your son, your only son, whom you love—Isaac—and go to the region of Moriah. Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering on a mountain I will show you.’ Early the next morning Abraham got up and loaded his donkey. He took with him two of his servants and his son Isaac. When he had cut enough wood for the burnt offering, he set out for the place God had told him about. On the third day Abraham looked up and saw the place in the distance” (Verses 2-4). If God gives it to you, doesn’t He have the right to ask for it back? This story is very inspiring to me. Why? Abraham waited for the promise to be fulfilled. God provided Issac. Then God said, I want him back. Abraham’s belief: “God will provide a lamb”. He believed. Therefore, he was obedient. Complete trust leads to complete obedience.
