In this last chapter in the story of Abraham’s life, we read what is probably the most gut wrenching stories in the entire Bible. This was a test of Abraham’s faith that involved the most precious thing Abraham had- his son Isaac.
Trust God when you're being tested. Hold tight to your faith in Him. He's not messing with you, and He's not torturing you.

And He's making you into a man or woman of real, true, tested faith that can change the world.
