DAILY READINGS: 1 Kings 19; Jeremiah 31; Hebrews 2
Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? James 2:21
Have you given your child to God? Abraham rose up early and made preparation; he expended time and effort in obedience to God’s command to bring his son to the place where God would provide Himself a ram in the stead of Isaac. It is not enough just to point our children to Christ, we must walk together with them to the place of worship and sacrifice. — D. Pickup
Will I pledge my son to heaven for the Gospel,
Though he faces rejection, ridicule and scorn?
I will teach him to rejoice, and lift a thankful, praising voice,
And to be like Him, who bore the nails and crown of thorns. —K. Green
