Overview
I learnt that as a christian you will be tested by society and God. I learnt that if you believe and trust in God, He will always have a plan for you and will never fail you.
One of the big promises from God to Abraham was that he will one day have a child. Sarah was unable to have child most of her life, but God gifted her with a child.
To have faith in God and trust in what he is telling you. That God is always there and keeps his promises.
