"Fools and blind! For which is greater, the gold or the temple that sanctifies the gold?" Matthew 23.17
The question of Jesus to the hypocrites of that time serves us well nowadays. The offering is not more important than the One who receives it and sanctifies it. The sacrifice of Isaac, was not more important than the obedience of his father. God sees the faith, the spirit that moves the heart of the offering giver.
