Abraham's Seed - Genesis 22: 17-18

Having a walk along the shore so many thoughts in your mind looking down on the sand sparkling from the sun so shined Here’s a picture of the eternal promise God made to Abraham so long ago His descendents would be like the sand shining like heavens jewels all aglow This would be indeed Abraham’s seed that God’s spirit would particularly plant all of His choosing in eternity past showing His mercy as He does grant These seeds can’t be numbered just like sand on the shore such is God’s unique wonderful love out of His abundance He does pour We owe our Lord such a debt for His magnificent free salvation to us He’s given His blessed son so we’re part of the heavenly nation (walking along the shore recently brought thoughts of the sand and how God's promise to Abraham that his descendants would be as sand of the sea shore. ' I will surely bless you, and I will surely multiply your offspring as the stars of heaven and as the sand that is on the seashore. And your offspring shall possess the gate of his[d] enemies, and in your offspring shall all the nations of the earth be blessed, because you have obeyed my voice.' )Genesis ch. 22vs. 17-18 (ESV)
