The Call of Abram
A Short Sermon

Genesis chapters 12-50 presents a brighter future characterized by God’s promises and blessings. Although the people in these chapters remain quite human and capable of sin – sin that has consequences.

In our first reading for this Sunday from Genesis 12:1-9, we learn about God's Call to Abram and Listen to what God said: "The Lord told Abram, LEAVE your country, your relatives, and your father’s house, and GO to the land that I will show you. I will cause you to become the father of a great nation. I will bless you and... All the families of the earth will be blessed through you." Abram chose to leave his kindred and the place of birth and make God as his source of his life.  “When God Calls - Choose to Obey”.
 hen I left my family after my college graduation in 1970, and moved to another city, heading to be out on my own, it was a little scary. To be 100 miles away from home, to say goodbye to my parents and siblings was not easy. It took almost 10 years for me to settle down in life.

I can imagine for Abram, it must have been a hard step, but this led him to walk into the Blessed Life. Every good and perfect gift comes from God. Abraham was told that he would have to make this new step that his life would take him out of familiarity into the unknown. God was going to be the source of blessing. God is the root cause for all Abraham’s greatness.
