Read it: Genesis 21:1-3
Live it:
Genesis 21:1 describes God’s faithfulness. He always does what He says. He always fulfills what He promises. God does what He says He will do. He promised Abraham and Sarah a son, and He came through. What is God promising us? The Bible is filled with His promises! Promises to be with us, to lead us, to guide us, to counsel us with wisdom, and to direct us by His spirit.
Sarah had to wait for what was most likely a painfully long time to see her promise fulfilled. I didn’t have to wait until I was in my 90’s, but I understand her pain. My husband and I battled infertility for six years before we adopted our miracle child. It was hard to see God’s perfect timing in the wait.
God’s timing for fulfilling His promises may not always feel like the best timing. However, God will fulfill His promise at the perfect time. God will never be late or early in doing what He says He will do. Trust God’s word today.
