Remember Sarah. I think I was judging her too harshly for her laughter. I've been reading and rereading Hebrews 11 this week and the second time through this verse jumped out at me. By faith Sarah herself received power to conceive, even when she was past the age, since she considered him faithful who had promised. Hebrews 11:11 Are you past the age? Or do you maybe just feel passed over? It takes practice to believe the promise before the proof.

Do you ever get lost in the volume of information we take in daily? I think this information overload can even invade my Bible reading. I need to just slow down. Taking in the Bible isn’t a race.
