A Promise to Countless Heirs
Genesis 15:1-6
He brought him outside and said, “Look toward heaven and count the stars, if you are able to count them.” Then he said to him, “So shall your descendants be.” And he believed the Lord; and the Lord reckoned it to him as righteousness. Genesis 15:5-6 NRSV
Some would have accused Abraham of playing small. But Abraham knew that we cannot count the promises of our future in God. To do so would be limiting.
