Peace From God

                                                               Genesis 22:8
                                       "And Abraham said, my son, God will provide"
                                                   "A lamb for a burnt offering"

      Some people may read this Scripture; as Abraham being "Tempted by God,"  However the Hebrew word "Nissah" means to be tested.  Abram loved Isaac, so God tested Abraham's faith in Him by telling Abraham to take Isaac to Moriah and offer him for a burnt offering. Abraham made it through that test or trial because his faith in God. The Bible tells us in ( 1 Cor 10:13 ) that God will never place inducements, test or trial's before us; in which we can not bear.
      We all have a trial that will be our "Hardest" to go through. I know; because I am going through my "Hardest" trial now;  The loss of my wife Robin. At first I was mad and could not accept her being gone and, "Why God Took Her Away From Me."  God stepped in and like Abraham I got peace. God reminded me, why he didn't take Isaac as a offering. God also went on and reminded me that He Himself gave His only Son because he loved us and wanted us to have Eternal Life. Well I guess God felt that I still was not understanding Him. God plainly said "Robert listen to me; I gave My Son and He returned to me, because of Truth, Faith, and Love and Robert your loved one came back to me, because of Truth, Faith, and Love. God Said "It's not a give and take option; what I give unto this world I will bring back unto myself.
      With this talk with God; I can now go forward knowing that even through death Robin's Eternal Life has now begun.  I pray that my talk with God on a lost loved one will help some others to go forward in life.
                                             "We never think about it until it happens to us"
