God doesn't laugh - Sarah - Final Part

One of my friends wants to work for the discovery channel. He doesn't have any provision for that. But still, its a dream. A dream worth dreaming. Yeah, you might laugh. Do you have any secret dream in you? Perhaps, you had it when you were young. And now, it has died.

If someone comes and tells you that it is still worth dreaming and pursuing, what would you do? Would you believe it?

I hope you do. Not all can believe it. And Sarah certainly didn't believe. She laughed at God. Well, she didn't mean to hurt him or belittle him. But she did laugh. She had this secret wish in her to conceive and beget a child. Now, thats an ordinary wish for any woman in the world.

But Sarah was past 90. She was as good as a dead woman. Still, she hoped and longed for it. But her knowledge or brain of the world ridiculed her. It is certainly not possible for a woman of her age to conceive. Thats why she laughed.

But as I had said before, God does not laugh. He certainly knows our secret desires. He longs to fulfill them. He wants to see us happy and bulging in our happiness. And he did the same to Sarah too. Halleluiah!!!

Read this excerpt taken from Genesis 21:

Now the LORD was gracious to Sarah as he had said, and the LORD did for Sarah what he had promised. Sarah became pregnant and bore a son to Abraham in his old age, at the very time God had promised him. Abraham gave the name Isaac to the son Sarah bore him.
