I am pretty sure she would have done something like that anyway.Frankienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6448569318737594574.post-35769094962188933972010-01-07T11:13:15.386-06:002010-01-07T11:13:15.386-06:00"Abraham told his servants, the boy and I wil..."Abraham told his servants, the boy and I will travel a little farther. We will worship there, and then 'we' will come right back." I couldn't help but to wonder what Abraham was really thinking. Did he just tell his servants that "we," meaning Abraham and Isaac, will be back so maybe they wouldn't interfere with Abraham sacrificing his son? Or maybe, Abraham thought, that God could and would bring Isaac back to life after the sacrifice. There is one thing that is fact. Abraham truly loved God and truly trusted God.<br /><br />Frankie, I bet Sarah didn't have any idea what Abraham was about to do. She had waited 90 years for a child. If she had known, she probably would have gotten on her camel and followed Abraham all the way there saying "have you lost your mind and just wait until we get back home".. That's what I would have probably done any way..Bill's Friendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12093463573393656591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6448569318737594574.post-49063220474275503002010-01-07T09:45:03.382-06:002010-01-07T09:45:03.382-06:00Debbie, something that I noticed this morning in o...Debbie, something that I noticed this morning in our reading was that Abraham journeyed three days to get to the land of Moriah where he would sacrifice Isaac. What always stuck in my mind was that Abraham got up early...well he had a three day journey to make. He had three days to think about God's instructions. <br /><br />Was Abraham shocked by God's request? The Word doesn't say. All we see in the Word is that he was obedient. Genesis 22:1, says, "God tested Abraham's faith."<br />Our faith makes our obedience possible. The two go hand in hand.<br /><br />On another note, I am wondering if Sarah had any idea of what Abraham had set out to do?Frankienoreply@blogger.com
