Genesis 22
Jesus is that lamb
And Isaac said to his father Abraham, “My father!”And he said, “Here I am, my son.” He said, “Behold, the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?” 8 Abraham said, “God will provide for himself the lamb for a burnt offering, my son.”So they went both of them together.
This is a very significant story and image for us as believers. We can ask all sorts of questions about why was God testing Abraham when He gave Abraham his son after such a long wait in the desert, and then after coming out from the wilderness, and entered into God’s promises. God tested Abraham not because God simply enjoyed making Abraham suffered. He tested him, because He knows at the end, God Himself, will stop it, and replace it with His own son. God so love us, He couldn’t see His sons and daughter being the one that pays for our own sin, so instead, He sent His one and only Son, and died on the cross for us.
Abraham understands that God will provide. Even if he killed Isaac, in him, he believes that God will resurrect Isaac because he loves Isaac, and he believes in God’s promises.
God will test me, and you, and those that follows Him, because He wants us to know at the end of all these, is it God over everything, or just God over a part of it. This test provides us a clear picture on our believes, if it’s just a convenient belief, then you will definitely see that during the test. But if I’m truly believe that God really provides, I know I’m safe in Him, in His providence. Even with my relationship with Sohjeong, I know there’s no one in this world and thing can break us apart other than God. But if God says so, I will place my relationship on the altar and surrender it to Christ. Because if I don’t, then I do not believe that God provided this love and relationship for us. And I can even say if I couldn’t do it, I’m truly lack of understanding God. I’ll be heartbroken but I still need to believe only God can give and if He chooses to take it away from me, He definitely has His reasons.
Sohjeong, I love you. but my love for Christ is always going to be more than what I can give you. I believe and trust in every step that He leads me, I will do everything to cherish and love on you. I will continue to pray that both of us will not idolize each other, that both of us will not idolize this relationship, we will continue to pursue Godliness and be mold into Christ-likeness in this relationship together. Even when we fail, even when we fall, even when we feel like we are weak, we must know that God is with us, and in Him, even when we go through all these, we can say we are strong and victorious, not because of us, but because of Him.
Amen
