Bible text: Genesis 12
Abram is called by God to leave his home, enter the unknown and walk in obedience, not knowing the plan but trusting only in God. Thousands of years later, God would call his own son down a similar path, to also leave his home, to sojourn and be treated as a foreigner. He would express all the traits Abraham must now learn: obedience, trust, courage, sacrifice and faithfulness to the call.
