Abraham is a great example of faith. As we often pray for faith and good courage to the
Lord who has called us “to ventures of which we cannot see the ending, by paths as yet
untrodden, through perils unknown,” Abraham lived with this courage. From Haran to
Canaan, Abraham was led by the hand of God toward the unfolding future God had
prepared in the incarnation of His only-begotten Son to be our Savior and Redeemer.
During Lent we join with Abraham of old and all the saints in trusting the Lord through
the unknown tomorrows to the outcome and end we do know in Christ—everlasting life.
