The True Promise Keeper


Hebrews 6:14


For when God made to Abraham a promise,
He could swear to no greater as glorious;
He swore on the blessing being blessed,
Of all the good fortune that he possessed;
And of multiplying that he would multiply,
After he patiently endured waiting a reply;
He obtained the promise God committed.
Those who do wait shall not be omitted;
God is committed to promises he makes,
Assurances no matter how long it takes;
He promised Abraham, Sarah to give birth,
Even though of his age no longer worth;
To think of having a child at her age now,
Is sort of like Sarah giving birth to a cow;
Thinking that the maid had a better chance,
He planted the seed for Ishmael to advance;
God must have understood and had a seed,
Sarah to present Isaac to Abraham indeed;
Same as with Noah through this very day,
God kept promise not to flood all the way.
