God Made Sarah Laugh

The Promise Fulfilled!

God gave Abraham and Sarah the promise that God will bless them with children and offspring.

Finally, after a long time of waiting and going through many challenges, when Abraham and Sarah were least expecting it, God fulfills the promise!

In this week’s story, we see three visitors who pass by Abraham and immediately, Abraham rushes over to them and offers the best hospitality he can offer. Little did Abraham and Sarah know that the three visitors were sent by God to give them good news!

How will you respond to unexpected good news?

We hope you enjoy reflecting on this story!
