11 By faith Abraham, even though he was past age—and Sarah herself was barren—was enabled to become a father because he considered him faithful who had made the promise. 12 And so from this one man, and he as good as dead, came descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as countless as the sand on the seashore.
Faith is powerful and can accomplish the humanly impossible. Sarah was barren and old. Abraham was old. It was humanly impossible for them to conceive. And yet Abraham believed God in faith. He believed in the One who had made the promise. I love that part. And because Abraham believed, because Abraham had faith, not only in what he couldn't see, but that God could accomplish the humanly impossible, he became the father of millions and the "father" of Christ Jesus Himself.
