Do we trust Him?

Genisis 22:1-2
This is the passage from Ashely and Jane Evans 'Devotions', plus a few of my notes. It's when God asked Abraham to sacrifice Issac. Why would God ask Abraham to do that when He detests the sacrifice of a person? And for that matter, wasn't Isaac the one who all the nations were going to be birthed from? Isaac was the most important thing to Abraham. God was seeing if Abraham trusted Him with his own son. He wanted to also see if Abraham believed in the promise about Isaac. What God has given to us, He actually wants us to let go & give back to Him. He can do such a better job than we can! The things He has given us are gifts from Him, He is the owner. We are stewards, which means we're meant to do what God wants, not what we want with what He's given to us. He wants us to believe that He can do something great with it. He wants us to believe that He is faithful and trustworthy. He wants to multiply it. Do we trust Him? Our life belongs to Him, we are hidden in Christ and seated in the High Places with Him where His Kingdom reigns! Where no weapon formed against us can prosper. We CAN trust our faithful, just, loving, giving, amazing God! He is our true Father who will always look after His precious children.
