WHEN ONE IS TESTED

Abraham was singled out as an example;

Faith in the LORD was his personal principle.

He had discovered Faith along the way;

He sought to practise it day by day.

 

There were inevitable mistakes made in life;

He had to bear the consequential strife.

But he held fast to his faith in the LORD;

He determined that he would obey God.

 

There came a huge test from the LORD;

Abraham was asked to make a sacrifice to God.

But this time it was not a lamb that was requested;

Isaac, his only begotten son was demanded!

 

Abraham obeyed the voice of the LORD;

He would even sacrifice Isaac to God!

His Faith told him to trust God fully;

Such great Faith is seen most rarely!
