We were reading the story of Abraham, and God had made a promise to Abraham that he would be the father of nations. "Look up at the sky Abe, see all of those stars? Count them if you can... the number of your children and grandchildren and great grandchildren will be the same as the stars in sky."
Abraham waited and waited for God to fulfill His promise. When God blessed Abraham with a son, you can only imagine how excited Abraham was! "Finally God gave me this which I have prayed for!"
You can only imagine how Abraham must have felt when God said, "Go, take your son, and give to me as a sacrifice."
So is DTS for me......
God promised me that He would take me places, that I would go to Thailand. He then, took it back, to test me..... Thailand is my son Isaac.
God has beautiful things in store for me, He has my life planned out for me. I just need to continue to give my dreams and hopes up to Him who gave them to me.
Gen 15:5- The Lord took Abraham outside and said, "look up at the stars, count them if you can." Then He said to him, "That is how many children you will have."
When God saw that Abraham trusted Him enough to kill his own son, He stopped Abraham. God gave him his son, his dreams, his hopes and desires, when He saw Abrahams faithfulness.
God keeps His promises.
