| “Now
it came about after these things, that God tested Abraham, and said to
him, ‘Abraham!’ And he said, ‘Here I am.’ He said, ‘Take now your son,
your only son, whom you love, Isaac, and go to the land of Moriah, and
offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I
will tell you.’” – Genesis 22:1 2 NASB
Think
of all that Isaac represented to Abraham! Isaac was the fulfillment of
God’s promises…a miracle child, born when Abraham and his wife were
unable to conceive…the heir to his possessions…the continuation of the
family line…the symbol of his future hopes and dreams.
Yet
God called Abraham to offer his long awaited son as a “burnt offering.”
What a shock this must have been! But Abraham’s obedience changed his
life. It proved he was willing to commit everything to God. He
demonstrated that he wouldn’t hold anything back and was ready for
greater blessings. Just as with Abraham, God wants us to
know how to look at our lives. He understands how easily we can cling
to people and possessions. We can hold things so tightly, and become so
protective, that they take control of us. But God wants
us to realize that we must be willing to lay everything on the altar
and surrender it fully to Him. When we do this, we recognize that we
cannot achieve blessings and success on our own…we must trust
completely in Him…we must live for Him…He must have first place in our
hearts.
Today, what is important to you? Are you clinging
to anything or any person more than the Lord? Right now, lay everything
on the altar. Commit it all to God, and make it an offering. Put Him
first in your life. If you trust Him, He will take away your burdens
and direct your steps.

Today was my last active day in the Navy!
I can now wake up when the sun is already up...what am I ever to do?
