Would you Go ?

Genisis 22:1-8

after waiting 100 yrs without out his promised son, when he finally gets him God calls to Abraham & tells him to sacrifice Issac to Him & God would show him where to do it ..so what did Abraham do ..he got up chopped some wood,made a fire & took a knife ..and bounced ......

wow...think about it ..no hesitation .. none whatsoever, would u go ? would u have the faith?
would you go contemplating the situation every step of the way ?
would your heart be a peace with the decision ?

Abraham knew that it wasn't the sacrifice of his son that was pleasing to God but the sacrifice of his own heart .. (stop & think about that)
God was testing his faith ... How often does God test my faith & i fail ..over & over again...but God in all his power is willing to pour out GRACE (undeserved Favor) in order to teach me & show me how to be a person that is pleasing to HIM .. TO USE ME
Take the first Step ..He is our solid ground in an unstable world ...
Faith requires ACTION
dont be asscared (lol)
God will never bring you to a place with out providing all you need...
Get intimate with JESUS EVERYDAY ALL DAY
Get IN HIS WORD ..AND ALLOW HIM TO PROVE IT TO YOU ...

A crown covered in mud ...

1 Corinthians 1:26
Remember that few of you were wise in the worlds eyes ,or powerful or wealthy , when God called you . Instead God deliberately chose things the world considers foolish in order to shame those who think they are wise, and he chose those who are powerless to shame those who are powerful.God chose things despised by the world ,things counted as nothing at all, and used them to bring to nothing what the world considers important . So that No man can ever boast in the presence of God ...

think about it .. God in all his power can calm the sea , change the direction of the wind ,can raise the dead. why on earth would he ever want to use somebody like me ...or you
I'm the chief of all sinners ! Everyday i need him to go before me & plead my case . Every day i fail , every moment i need him because with out him i am nothing but a dirty crown .. I don't have wealth , I don't have a title or fame. I surrender all of me in his presence because i am privileged to trust him. ..
the cool part of this is in all my shame he palces a crown on my head and calls me his daughter ..
Royalty ! And even though its covered in mud he washes me in his word & calls me beautiful .
Ezekiel 16:8-14
so no matter what remember that hes always there even in ur darkest moments ..to brush u off & give you the desire to obey him & the power to do what pleases him ..Phil2 :13
let him lead you through this life ..
