When you’ve been waiting a longer time than expected to see a dream become a reality, it’s easy to become discouraged, disappointed, and dare I say jaded. It can get harder and harder to see other people see their dreams come true while yours seems dead or dormant. It can affect your heart… which then affects your relationships, your friendships, and your faith.
Today, let’s unpack the miracle of Abraham and Sarah conceiving a child in their old age. They both laughed, but their laughs were different types of laughs… so they got different responses from God.
I hope this episode gives you some insight into how two people can walk a journey of waiting differently, how two people can respond differently when receiving the same promise from God, and how God can heal our hearts if we are willing to come before him vulnerably.
