Hebrews 11:11
How do we honor those we love, even after they’re gone? When Sarah passed, Abraham’s grief was deep, yet he acted with purpose, purchasing the Cave of Machpelah as her burial site. This was more than a resting place—it symbolized God’s promise of a homeland for his family, a legacy built on faith and trust in God’s promises. Sarah’s life and passing remind us that God’s promises endure beyond our earthly journey. Her story, celebrated in Hebrews 11:11, shows a woman who trusted God for the impossible and saw His faithfulness unfold. In our lives, moments of loss can inspire us to reaffirm our trust in God’s promises and remember that our faith leaves a legacy. Today, let Sarah and Abraham’s story encourage us to live with hope and purpose, trusting that God’s promises are sure.
