Lesson from our Session…………………………..
MONDAY
(Genesis 17:17) Then Abraham fell on his face and laughed, and said to himself, “Can a child be born to a man who is a hundred years old? Can Sarah, who is ninety years old, bear a child?”
Abraham’s laughter did not express doubt about what God could or would do, because earlier God had made a sacred covenant (contract or promise) with Abraham that He would give Abraham land and descendants to fill the land. Abraham laughed with joy that a couple the age of Sarah and himself would have a child through an act of God.
Lesson: Neither time nor natural laws can keep God from accomplishing His plans (Gen. 17:15-17)
Reflection: Everyday God performs the miraculous. He heals broken bodies of cancer and restores ill children from disease. That He doesn’t do this with everyone causes us to question even the miraculous. We should not doubt His power but recognize His right to exercise it as He chooses.
