Susan LaffertyUnexpected ways. How He pierces hearts. Pursues the lost lamb.
Opens eyes to see. And ears to hear.
During our years in a desert city, a believer shares her story. Tells me the very moment she turned and followed Christ.
Reading Scripture. And not the usual evangelistic passage.
But pointing to the One who is worthy of our praise.
Altars marked the path of Abraham. God said go and he obeyed. He moved his tent to the next place, built an altar and worshiped. Altars marked his encounters with a holy God, a covenant-making God. Some marked sacrifice and absolute surrender—holding nothing back from the One who called his name.
As we moved our “tent” across the world and established home in the temporary place, I thought of Abraham and Sarah. I drew strength from their journey to a place they did not know.
