We grow to admire the Apostle Paul for his persistence. He keeps hammering home the facts he presents. And we are blessed with his persistence my "walking with Jesus friend, because he helps us understand God's point of view. Continuing about Abraham and faith, Paul writes: "OK, so Abraham and his wife were well past child-bearing age. Yet God PROMISED Abraham that he would become the father of many nations [Genesis 17:5], and Abraham BELIEVED GOD. God also said, 'Your descendants will be as numerous as the stars [Genesis 15:5]' Now, even though such a promise seemed utterly impossible at the time, Abraham's Faith did not waver. His faith in the promise of God stayed strong, even though he knew that he was 100 years old and his wife was also old and had never been able to have children. Still his faith grew. He was absolutely convinced that God IS able to do anything He promises. And, because of Abraham's Faith, God declared him to be righteous. And, yes, God fulfilled His promise. Abraham and his wife Sarah, although very old, conceived and became the parents of Isaac...and thus fathered many people, just as God had promised."(Romans 4:18-22) Let's learn and fully trust the promises of God.
