English Christian Song | "God Treasures Man's Submission and Sincerity"
February 12, 2025
I
In God's promise to Abraham, we see God's heart: God especially treasures man's submission to Him, and cherishes man's understanding of Him and sincerity toward Him. How much does God cherish this sincerity? At a time when no one comprehended God's words or understood His heart, Abraham did something that shook the heavens and made the earth tremble, and it made God feel an unprecedented sense of satisfaction, and brought God the joy of gaining someone who was able to submit to His words. This satisfaction and joy came from a created being made by God's own hand. It was the first "sacrifice" that man had offered to God and that was most treasured by God, ever since man was created.
II
God had had a hard time waiting for this sacrifice, and He treated it as the first most important gift from man, whom He had created. It showed God the first fruit of His efforts and of the price He had paid, and it allowed Him to see the hope in mankind. Afterward, God had an even greater yearning for a group of such people to keep Him company, to treat Him with sincerity, and to care for Him with sincerity. God even hoped that Abraham would live on, for He wished to have a heart such as Abraham's accompany Him and be with Him as He continued in His management.
