the first step of faith

By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going. Hebrews 11:8 Abraham's life was filled with faith. At God's command, he left home and went to another land - obeying without question. He believed the covenant that God made with him. In obedience, Abraham was willing to sacrifice his only son. Do not be surprised if God asks you to give up secure familiar surroundings in order to carry out His will. If we take the first step of faith, it won't be too long until we realize that we are not alone. "I will never leave you nor forsake you." The key word is obedience. The key truth is that He loves us and has great plans for our lives, far greater than we can ask or imagine. God bless you, J.H.
