The Real Sacrifice
Description

In the story today, Abraham did not have to sacrifice Isaac. God didn’t want that, God wanted to give Abraham the freedom of knowing, God would provide – even when he didn’t see how. Just like that a ram appeared. Abraham’s step was much lighter walking down the mountain than it was going up because he realized when all things fall away: Children, marriages, perfect memory, sound body, friends and funds, there will still be the love of God, and nothing can take that away.
