Trent Rankin Salvation Church, Gastonia, NC salvationchurchnc.org What about God? Just for a moment, think of that person or persons that you love most. Maybe it is a spouse, child, or even a close f r i e n d t h a t means the world to you. There is nothing you would not do for that person. You would do whatever it took to support such loved ones. What about God? This month we have talked so much about loving each other, neighbors, and even how much God loves us. However, what about our love for God? In Genesis 22:1-14, God tests Abraham's love and commitment to Him. God had promised to make a mighty nation through Abraham's descendants, which would become the nation of Israel. Unfortunately, Abraham had no son, no heir. In his and his wife Sarah's old age, a son was miraculously born, Isaac. This long-awaited child was loved be- yond measure. One day, God told Abraham to take his young son up to a mountain and sacrifice him on an altar. Amazingly, Abraham took Isaac and set out to the mountains. When they arrived at the place ap- pointed by God, Abraham built the altar, bound his son, and placed him on it. As he drew a knife and prepared to take his son's life, God stopped him. God provided a ram caught in a thicket to sacrifice in- stead. God had never intended for Abraham to sacrifice his son. He was testing him to see what he loved most. Abraham clearly loved God above all things, including his son. What about God in our lives? How much do we love Him? Are we loving God through our wor- ship, our prayer life, and growing more like Jesus through His Word? How far are we willing to go for God? Is there a price too high for us to pay in our relationship with God? For Abraham, no price was too high. In Revelation 2:4, Jesus told the Ephesian church, "Nevertheless I have this against you, that you have left your first love" (NKJV). They were going through the motions, yet they had forgotten the love they should have had for Jesus. Today many have forgotten their first love Jesus. We go through the motions, yet often Jesus is not preeminent in our lives. As much as we love our families and friends, gladly sacri- ficing for them, so should we do the same in our relationship with Jesus. As we look at our lives, and our love relationships, what about God? Rev. Trent Rankin Radical Love
