Re:Verse passage – Genesis 22:1-18 (day two) He said, “Do not stretch out your hand against the lad, and do nothing to him; for now I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld your son, your only son, from Me.” vs. 12
Most of you know that I spent many years in the classroom as a choir teacher. It was my training and my dream to teach. When God began to pull at my heart to leave the classroom to serve in the local church. I was not, initially, eager to obey. My path had been set before me, and my prospects were exactly what I had dreamed about. The Lord reminded me of Numbers 9:15-23. Wherever the cloud went, the Israelites were to follow. Where the cloud was, there was the Lord. It helped remind me of where I ultimately put my trust. Not in my wants and desires, but in the footprints of the savior. Abraham is remarkable in that he didn’t have scripture to fall back upon. His fear (read trust) in the Lord came from some very real encounters throughout his life that he was willing to shape his decision making upon. Are you trusting the Lord today? Even when he gives you an uncomfortable assignment, you can trust him.
Hi Aaron. I remember when you came down to “fill in” for a few Sundays when the previous Minister of music moved to Amarillo. I’m guessing that at the time you didn’t know where that was leading you.👍😁 It happened to me so I understand. God is always ahead of us. What a great journey.🙏🙏
Aaron,
‘So glad that you said yes to God regarding FBCSA. Your sharing of your skills, talent, joy, & especially your heart, are such a blessing!🩷
