Pause to Make Promises

God's promise to Abraham Genesis 15:1. Abraham 99 Sarah 90. Let God do what he does (he promises) on his own. We can't manipulate or coerce. Let God have his way. God promised Abraham a son at 99, Sarah at 90. Sarah laughed. Abraham got his son, Isaac, at age 100. Isaac means laughter.

Moral: God is faithful even when we are faithless. Justification by faith: Genesis 15:6.

A promise is only as good as the person who made it.

I take God at his word.
