This man from Ur, is told to give up his son.
The Son of God said

“Whoever tries to keep their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life will preserve it.”

What is the life that one is losing? Could it be a life of greed, hatred? Envy? Lust? Things of the world that catch our eye?

Do you remember this time, when God had tempted Abraham? The conclusion from Abraham’s decision, was to take his Son, and do as Yahava told him; however Abraham’s faith, seen that Yahava, who can make things from being dead to being alive. Abraham also precluded before going up the mount, was that he and his son would return back the base of the mount, with the others again.
