Commenting on the lesson about Abraham, one student wrote, “God sometimes calls us out of false religions to step out in faith to a new way of worshiping Him. I was thinking this morning about where I was this time last year. I was visiting my family and went to [worship] with hen never dreaming I would ever worship differently.”
“I am not sure how Abram communicated with God in the midst of all the idol worship, but somehow he must have had an open heart to hear God’s voice.”
“When I left [my old religion], I was scared of how my family would react. I had fears about being rejected, but I knew God was calling me to something different. I wonder if Abraham/Sarah had similar feelings when they left Ur and their families and familiar idols to step into the unknown.”
It is never easy to make such a leap of faith.
