The Promise to Abraham
"I will make you a great nation; I will bless you."Genesis 12:2
Reflection
Abraham left home without knowing where he was going, trusting a promise. God kept it, only much later.
Prayer
God, give me faith to go even without seeing the end. Amen!
Talk about it as a family
- How would you feel leaving home without knowing where you were going?
- Why did Abraham trust God without seeing the way?
- Have you ever waited a long time for a promise?
5-minute activity
On a clear night, look at the stars and try to count them. Tell how God promised Abraham a family more numerous than the stars. If it's cloudy, draw stars on paper. Read Genesis 15:5.
