—Genesis 21:1-8

Yesterday, Sarah’s laughter seemed to be a testament to her lack of faith. How could a woman her age possibly bear a son? In today’s scripture, Sarah laughs again. This time she claims that everyone will laugh with her! The difference in her laughter this time, is that she is laughing with joy! God richly blessed her with the son she and Abraham had always desired. When God fulfilled his promise to her and her husband, she was full of joy! God has given each of us joy too. Rejoice in God’s gifts, be thankful for his promises, and praise him for his perfect plan and perfect timing!
