Too Old?????

Monday June 16th, Genesis 18: 10 One of them said, "I'm coming back about this time next year. When I arrive, your wife Sarah will have a son." Sarah was listening at the tent opening, just behind the man. 11-12 Abraham and Sarah were old by this time, very old. Sarah was far past the age for having babies. Sarah laughed within herself, "An old woman like me? Get pregnant? With this old man of a husband?" Sometimes the wonder of God’s blessing is so far out there that the only thing to do is Laugh. You want me to do What!?!? But the blessing would come true, on God’s terms. Sarah would just have to put away brochures for the Florida retirement home, with God there seems to be little time for retirement. Each and every day is a new day of new adventures, fortunately, not always like Sarah’s great adventure. Like other stories of miraculous births, this child was destined to do the will of God and lead a great people that would bring hope to the masses. His brother, was also blessed by God, sometimes we forget that.
