Provided
Provided was the strength
to carry wood and flame and knife.
Provided was an only son,
and the faith to take his life.
Provided was a promise,
The child would make a chosen race.
Provided was a ram
to take the sinner’s place.
Provision’s not the point
when God moves to meet a need,
anymore than planting’s point
is to simply bury seed.
Provision turns our eyes
to their maker up above
and helps define his character
as a faithful God of love.
Provided is a lamb,
sent to take the sinner’s place,
provided we accept in faith
the offer of his grace.
This sculpture depicts a “urial” sheep which were native in Israel at the time of Abraham.
