My sister ask me a question this weekend that I wasn't able to answer. Not being able to provide her with an explanation caused me to ponder the question she posed to me. So how is it that Isaac saw success in an area that he should not have had the possibility of being successful? All afternoon I thought about that.
Well, this morning while having our family Bible study, God provided the answer through the testimony of Mark Hamby of Lamplighter Publishing. While a young man in college, he had a teacher challenge him to do his best and allow God to do the rest.
Yes, I am reminded this morning of how important obedience is to my Father. Just as He expects me to train these children to be obedient, He also expects my unfailing obedience. But ah… how great are the rewards. Besides the intimate, priceless relationship it creates with my Father, His blessings and earthly success are inevitable.
The answer to the question….. "Faithful is He who calls you, who will also do it." He and He alone has blessed our obedience!
