My One and Only Son



God's devoted servant Abraham was told to sacrifice his only son Isaac. When, Abraham actually led his son to the mountain top to sacrifice and was about to slice his son open, God said that he couldn't believe that Abraham would actually kill his only son and then provided a ram to sacrifice instead. Then Abraham and Isaac left the mountain top with a blessing from God that their decedents would be many and blessed.

True Sacrifice. A rather annoying feature in most "popular" books. Why can't people just be like "Hi. My name is Alice, and I live a happy uneventful life. The End." That would be the best book ever. Why does Harry Potter's mom have to die and save him? Too dramatic. It would have been so much easier had she just like handed him over. Goodness. And what about Percy Jackson? Giving up a normal life to like SAVE THE WORLD doesn't matter at all. Why couldn't it just be "Percy Jackson and the Bakery with Blue Stuff."
