Abraham is an image of the Christian life. Our first call, is to live like God’s promises for us are actually true. As Christians, we are simply called to live with confidence that the Gospel is true for us; that we are God’s beloved.
Living like God’s promises are true is never just a personal, private thing. We are called to live with gospel-confidence in real life. In big moments, in mundane moments. In the joy, in the headaches. You have unlimited, undeserved, unshakable forgiveness in Jesus Christ. How does that effect your marriage, your job, your finances, your everyday life?
In Christ, the greatest enemy, death, has no power over you. And nothing can separate you from the love of God. So why are you so anxious?
It is very easy to look in the mirror and doubt that you are God’s beloved. The Christian life is a process of learning to trust that the promises of God are real, despite what you may see or feel.
