Ponder on this 🤔

At the time when Isaac was born to Abraham's family, Abraham was about 100 years old, while Sarah was about 90 years old. The Bible records that it was clinically impossible for them to have children at that age.

But after the couple's bodies were quickened by the power of God, they both received power to conceive. This was how Isaac was born.

However, the quickening of Sarah's body didn't continue after Isaac was born. After the birth of Isaac, nature came back and she couldn't conceive again till she died.

However, after Abraham's body was quickened, he remained virile for many more years. It appears that his whole reproductive system received a rejuvenation. After the death of Sarah, Abraham could still marry a new wife called Keturah with whom they had 6 sons.

What are the lessons for us to learn from this?
