Mine…mine…mine! Small children aren’t the only ones who whine like this.

Sure, adults may not voice their attachments to possessions and people with such a whine, but they don’t have to—actions speak louder than words. It’s tough to hold loosely everything and everyone we love. But that is exactly what God calls us to do, as Chuck Swindoll reminds us through this timeless account of Abraham’s sacrificial attitude. What better encouragement than to start the New Year thinking, His…His…His?

Genesis 22:1–14
