Was He a Rebel

~ Was He a Rebel? ~


 Was he a rebel
    a son from hell
 He left his father's home
    for a destination unknown

 Took his childless bride
    and his nephew aside
 Said that his essence in order to know
    There was no choice, God told him to go

 To leave his home and his homeland
    To find out what kind of man
       he truly could be

 By now his name you may have guessed
    That's right - He was Abraham
       ~ This was his first of Ten Tests

Judy Ball Date: 10/12/2021 12:52:00 PM Abraham, The Friend of God. He truly knew God and because of his faith God Blessed him and promised him that his descendants would be as uncountable as the sands or the stars of the heavens. And it's true today. He made a great nation of him. Israel. Excellent Gershon. Love it. A fave for me. God Bless, JB Login to Reply
