Genesis 22 : 1-14

After these things God decided to test Abraham’s faith. God said to him, “Abraham!” And he said, “Yes!” 2. Then God said, “Take your son to the land of Moriah and kill your son there as a sacrifice for me. This must be Isaac, your only son, the one you love. Use him as a burnt offering on one of the mountains there. I will tell you which mountain.” 3. In the morning Abraham got up and saddled his donkey. He took Isaac and two servants with him. He cut the wood for the sacrifice. Then they went to the place where God told them to go. 4. After they traveled three days, Abraham looked up, and in the distance he saw the place where they were going. 5. Then he said to his servants, “Stay here with the donkey. The boy and I will go to that place and worship. Then we will come back to you later.” 6. Abraham took the wood for the sacrifice and put it on his son’s shoulder. Abraham took the special knife and fire. Then both he and his son went together to the place for worship. 7. Isaac said to his father Abraham, “Father!” Abraham answered, “Yes, son?” Isaac said, “I see the wood and the fire. But where is the lamb we will burn as a sacrifice?” 8. Abraham answered, “God himself is providing the lamb for the sacrifice, my son.” So both Abraham and his son went together to that place. 9. When they came to the place where God told them to go, Abraham built an altar. He carefully laid the wood on the altar. Then he tied up his son Isaac and laid him on the altar on top of the wood. 10. Then Abraham reached for his knife to kill his son. 11. But the angel of the LORD stopped him. The angel called from heaven and said, “Abraham, Abraham!” Abraham answered, “Yes?” 12. The angel said, “Don’t kill your son or hurt him in any way. Now I can see that you do respect and obey God. I see that you are ready to kill your son, your only son, for me.” 13. Then Abraham noticed a ram whose horns were caught in a bush. So Abraham went and took the ram. He offered it, instead of his son, as a sacrifice to God. 14. So Abraham gave that place a name, “The LORD Provides.” Even today people say, “On the mountain of the LORD, he will give us what we need.”

John 11 : 32

Mary went to the place where Jesus was. When she saw him, she bowed at his feet and said, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.”

Psalms 34 : 1

I will praise the LORD at all times. I will never stop singing his praises.
