A five-minute Christian meditation and lectio divina practice on Hebrews 11:8, with a reading from Søren Kierkegaard's Fear and Trembling. Day 16 of the Unseen Existences series.
Scripture Hebrews 11:8 (NRSVUE) By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to set out for a place that he was to receive as an inheritance, and he set out, not knowing where he was going.
Refrain I set out without knowing. Faith is what I carry.
Quote Søren Kierkegaard, from Fear and Trembling trans. L.M. Hollander "Through the urging of his faith Abraham left the land of his forefathers and became a stranger in the land of promise. He left one thing behind and took one thing along: he left his worldly wisdom behind and took with him faith." Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
