Ninety-nine years old, enjoying getting up late and going to sleep early, and you are going to have a son. Sarah, ninety years old, barely willing to fix her husband a sandwich, and now going to have a baby to look after. How ridiculous! What a crazy business! Lord, you’ve got to be kidding. And the Bible says that Abraham fell on his face and laughed and said, “Shall a child be born to a man who is a hundred years old? Shall Sarah, who is ninety years old, bear a child?” Lord, you’ve got to be kidding, and it’s not only that, it isn’t biologically possible, it’s just not what I had in mind.
But we can learn something from Abraham and Sarah. In the midst of plans changing, it’s best to laugh, to let God’s will be done, and to not take life so seriously – make our plans, but be willing to change.
