Huge Faith of Abraham

I love the FAITH of Abraham. AND though i hate just stealing part of a sermon i heard before....it stuck with me.
Genesis 22:5 He said to his servants, "Stay here with the donkey while I and the boy go over there. We will worship and then we will come back to you."
Abraham knew what God had called him to do....and yet in his statement to his servant I believe he didnt lie to him. WE will worship and WE will come back to you. I firmly believe that he was telling the truth....although he knew he would kill Isaac. But, like he told Isaac later, the Lord will provide a sacrifice.....but even if he didnt, Abraham had faith enough in God, in his character, in his word.....that he would raise Isaac from the dead ....if Abraham killed him.

in the parable of the weed.....weeds have been sown into the wheat field (by the enemy), or "unsaved" have worked their way into, come along side, or are trying to look like believers (for whatever reason) and
Matt13: "The servants asked him, 'Do you want us to go and pull them up?'29" 'No,' he answered, 'because while you are pulling the weeds, you may root up the wheat with them.
i thought why this must be true....the first is obvious..there will be final judgement..and we arent the judge. but the second is that because we ARENT the judges....we wont judge correctly. and in doing so...other new, believers...who are young in the faith, may se this as too harsh, wrong, unjust, hypocritical. We may actually undo the good we have previously worked for in these young believers by acting AS God. Jesus...explains that there is a time for that...and the judgmemt will be strong....but now isnt the time.
I took this as a challenge today...to equip our sons, each others sons....families and those who will join us.....we know who the weeds are, we should be aware of the weeds, but not be so concerned with judging and punishing.... Gods timing and sovereignty will handle those things.... and I can do what I am called to do.

Woke up this morning in Buda....was nice to sleep a night in my own bed. Not for long....be praying for us as we head out today for Tennessee...to see Jenny's family. This is a trip Jenny now wishes we didnt have to do. She is just ready NOT to be living out of a suitcase.... but I know we'll have a great time seeing all of them when we get there.
