There’s a story in Scripture that’s been close to my heart lately —
Abraham. Isaac. And a mountain no one wanted to climb.
God asked Abraham to lay down the very thing He had given him —
his long-awaited son.
And Abraham said yes.
Not because it made sense,
but because he trusted God’s heart,
even when the path didn’t look like provision.
Someone reminded me recently:
“I like to think the lamb was already on its way up the other side of the mountain.”
That stayed with me.
Because that’s what faith is, isn’t it?
Trusting that God is already providing —
even when all you can see is loss.
We may not understand the mountain,
but we can trust the One who meets us there.
He hasn’t forgotten.
He’s still writing the story.
And the thicket is never empty.
