As I recall this day was a bit cloudy and cool compared to the desert of the last few days. We hiked up the hill to this city and were rewarded with a lesson on the promise God gave Abraham. The lesson was on making a covenant. The desert picture here is where Abraham and Sarah lived. This was a very powerful lesson!!

Am I thinking right, here at Arad is where we heard the most about what the sacrificial system meant to God and to Abraham? What a painfully sweet lesson that was, too! "Jesus, the Lamb slain from the foundations of the world.." it all takes on new meaning to me now. With all God's commitment to His people--to me--why so hard to find the courage to take a strong stand for HIM??? "I want to love Him more...!"
When we went with RVL in 2000 this was my most powerful faith lesson. God let me love you with ALL my heart--even as you loved Jesus and sent him to die for us!
I would love to spend one more day hiking in the desert-(literally) compared to the desert we are experiencing here at home. God is still good. --Ina
