06.16.24 - The Father of All Who Believe: Abraham
Since today is Father’s Day, we are paid a visit by Abraham, the most important human father of all time, who tells us his story. (Hebrews 10:36 - 11:19) “The father of many nations” has many lessons from which to learn, the chief one being one of faith. God’s call to Abram is incomplete, to be generous. In spite of having very limited information, Abram trusts God’s promise and answers His call. As Abram’s journey continues, his faith (and obedience) increases in the face of circumstances that are less than promising. We are called to a similar trusting faith in God, even when we don’t fully understand our circumstances or His present call. Like Abram - now Abraham - shows us, we are to do what we do know God is calling us to, and to be faithful as He reveals Himself and His will to us further along the way. Happy Father’s Day!
