Sarah finally gets what she has been waiting for, but she's a bit defensive. God has promised to give her and Abraham descendants through Isaac. Still she insists, "Get rid of this slave woman and her son. No child of this slave is going to share inheritance with my son Isaac!"
God has already promised to make of Ishmael a great nation too. So Hagar need not fear for his life, nor Abraham.
More favorite Toby Mac lyric is this, "I gave to you a son so that you could know the Father's love for you." I just wish there wasn't so much hatred here. God has blessed us with laughter. His promises are true...for all.
