The challenge of this
passage
the calling to Abraham
when God said go
he said yes with his feet
ready to obey
to sacrifice his son,
Too often we say not yes,
but,
the challenge of this
passage
for each one of us;
what would we sacrifice
what would we give
if called on by God.
would we give freely
almost without thinking
not hesitating at the call of
God;
would we trust and obey
would our yes be a yes
with no but attached.
