And Abraham picked up the knife to kill his son as a sacrifice.
“Do not hurt him in any way, for now I know that you truly fear God. You have not withheld from me even your son, your only son.”
“O Lord, God of my master, Abraham,” he prayed. “Please give me success today, and show unfailing love to my master, Abraham.
Before he had finished praying, he saw a young woman named Rebekah coming out with her water jug on her shoulder.
“The Lord has obviously brought you here, so there is nothing we can say.
“Our sister, may you become
the mother of many millions!
May your descendants be strong
and conquer the cities of their enemies.”
Lord God my Father,
Shape in me a faith that is pure and strong. May I be obedient to your will for me. May I trust in your way completely. May I come to you first in all things I do and think and trust in your answer. May I have God sized expectations.
In Jesus name I pray,
Amen
