Love Vast As The Ocean

The gestation period for mice is 21 days, for a hen 22 days, a whale 547 days and an elephant 624 days. But the whale and the elephant had nothing on the birth of Isaac the child of promise. Abraham waited 25 years. It could be said that “The word of the Lord tested him.”

God further tested Abraham the father of the faith, when he commanded him to sacrifice Isaac on the mountain of Moriah, although not in God’s heart for Abraham to carry through. God provided the sacrifice for Abraham and 2,000 years later on the same mountain gave His only begotten Son Jesus. It was an eternal sacrifice demonstrating a Love Vast As The Ocean.
