As we take a look back at the life of Abraham, we see his high points and his low points, and they teach us some powerful lessons as we travel on our journey of faith.

God promises in His Word that He will answer our prayers. That doesn't mean that we get whatever we want because He loves us enough and knows us so well that He always gives us what we really need, even when we don't know we need it.

Abraham lived a long, full life and died satisfied with life. What a way to go!

Romans 8:28 promises that God causes all things to work together for our good if we love Him and are called according to His purpose. That promise becomes an anchor for our lives when we're faced with difficult or devastating circumstances because we know He's going to bring something good...even when we don't understand what's going on.

After a lifetime of adventure and faith with her husband, Abraham, Sarah dies and Abraham purchases property that will serve as a family burial tomb for many ages to come. Sarah's faith became sight and she left a legacy of faith for her son, Isaac.

A life without a purpose isn't a life worth living. The good news is that God, the Creator of all things, created you. Therefore, you are part of His design, and you have a God-given purpose in this life!
