Each one of them has a unique story and it is important to understand that each of us has our own unique stories as well. Also it is important to note that we as women in the modern days don’t need a prophetic prophecy for us to become pregnant as these women did (that is why their stories made it into the bible).
I think these women are amazing examples to us of their strength and faith. They lived in a time that if one couldn’t bear children then they were subject to scorn and sometimes exile by their husbands. Also their husband would go as far as getting a second and third wife to bear them sons. I am grateful for these women’s strength and faith in such a trying time. Also it makes me grateful for modern medicine and everything that we have to help us get pregnant!
The four women that I am going to write about this week are Sarah, the wife of Abraham; Rachel, wife of Jacob; Hanna, wife of Elkanah; and Elisabeth, wife of Zacharias.
