Devotional
Faith is not about earning God’s satisfaction; it’s a response to what He has already done for us. Abraham’s willingness to sacrifice Isaac was not to gain God’s favor but a response to his trust in God’s promises. Our faith should be a response to the incredible gift of Jesus Christ, who gave everything for us.

When we understand the depth of God’s love and provision, our natural response is to give everything back to Him. This is not out of obligation but out of gratitude and love for what He has done.

Bible Verse
Hebrews 11 - 'Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.'

Reflection Question
How can you respond to God’s love and provision in your daily life?

Quote
The response of a tested faith that gives everything is not a means to gaining God's satisfaction. It is a response to what He has given us. If He's given us Jesus, what can we hold back?

Prayer
Lord, thank You for the gift of Jesus. Help me to respond to Your love with a heart of gratitude and a life of faith. Amen.
