Twenty-five years after God first called Abraham and promised him that he would be the father of nations, we get to celebrate that his son, Isaac, is born. Abraham is a hundred years old, and Sarah is in her nineties, but they have borne a child! What an incredible miracle that speaks of the goodness and faithfulness of God. How wonderful to have a God who does what He says He will do, for whom nothing is impossible. We can’t deny the wait was long and hard, but in the waiting God was doing something even more wonderful than creating a miracle baby – He was revealing Himself. Be encouraged, God is with us, He is for us, and He will bring us through. We can build our lives on Him.
