“I know how devoted you are to God, since you did not withhold from me your own beloved son.” -
Genesis 22:12
Abraham was so devoted to God that he was willing to sacrifice his only son. How does our own devotion compare? Do we withhold time, talent and treasure from the God who sacrificed His only Son for us?

Does God provide everything we need?
Why do you think Job trusted God?
How do you think Job felt when he realized that God always
loved him?
Can you think of good times and bad times when God’s love
for you has remained constant?
