Abraham’s story is our story. Like this great man of faith, we have been called to embark on a great spiritual journey. Wherever God led, Abraham followed; whenever God promised, he believed. When tested, Abraham trusted, and as he was blessed, he shared that blessing with others. At times he succumbed to weakness and let his flaws lead him astray, yet ultimately God rewarded his faith and called him “my friend.” What is said of Abraham can be said of us, too, if we choose to be like him — “fully convinced that God is able to do whatever he promises.” The life of Abraham shows us what it means to hope in places that seem hopeless, to plunge into the promises of God and live by faith, ready and assured that God will surely do what he says he will do.
