Genesis 22: The longest 50 mile trip in the world

No actual scripture for today, just a general musing. Genesis 22 concerns Abraham's trip with Isaac, where he is responding to God's call to sacrifice his son. As we all know, God doesn't make himm go through with it, but what hit me today was that the journey to the place of sacrifice was 50 miles. Think of how long that would have taken (three days maybe?) and how Abraham would have been wrestling with the idea of killing his son for that whole time. Those of us who look for an immediate answer need to hold on and trust God that it WILL come in his timing. Like Abraham, trust God, and you won't be disappointed.
