Indeed, all will be well
all will be well- original postKhrystus , praying for you and your family. Your blogs have been very inspirational to me.
It's been a dramatic week for me and my friends. It's good to know that there is some good news and there is light at the end of the tunnel.
There is nothing our lord cannot do. Sometimes we are aware of God's guidance and we know things will be ok, but we choose to try to make it work our own way. We neglect prayer and we forget that our God can do ALL things, nothing is too difficult for our lord to accomplish.
When the Lord promised Abraham that he would be the ancestor for so many descendants that he would not be able to count them, Abraham thought the Lord was talking metaphorically... or didn't fully understand. Afterall, he was already quite old and his wife was barren. His wife even gave him her servant to sleep with in order to accomplish this in a humanly way. BUT God's plans was for them to conceive at such an old age, humanly difficult.
Genesis 18
The Three Visitors
1 The LORD appeared to Abraham near the great trees of Mamre while he was sitting at the entrance to his tent in the heat of the day. 2 Abraham looked up and saw three men standing nearby. When he saw them, he hurried from the entrance of his tent to meet them and bowed low to the ground. 3 He said, “If I have found favor in your eyes, my lord,[a] do not pass your servant by. 4 Let a little water be brought, and then you may all wash your feet and rest under this tree. 5 Let me get you something to eat, so you can be refreshed and then go on your way—now that you have come to your servant.”
“Very well,” they answered, “do as you say.”
6 So Abraham hurried into the tent to Sarah. “Quick,” he said, “get three seahs[b] of the finest flour and knead it and bake some bread.”
7 Then he ran to the herd and selected a choice, tender calf and gave it to a servant, who hurried to prepare it. 8 He then brought some curds and milk and the calf that had been prepared, and set these before them. While they ate, he stood near them under a tree.
9 “Where is your wife Sarah?” they asked him.
“There, in the tent,” he said.
10 Then one of them said, “I will surely return to you about this time next year, and Sarah your wife will have a son.”
Now Sarah was listening at the entrance to the tent, which was behind him. 11 Abraham and Sarah were already very old, and Sarah was past the age of childbearing. 12 So Sarah laughed to herself as she thought, “After I am worn out and my lord is old, will I now have this pleasure?”
13 Then the LORD said to Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh and say, ‘Will I really have a child, now that I am old?’ 14 Is anything too hard for the LORD? I will return to you at the appointed time next year, and Sarah will have a son.”
15 Sarah was afraid, so she lied and said, “I did not laugh.”
But he said, “Yes, you did laugh.”
