In Genesis 18:10-15 and 21:1-7, we gain valuable insights into Sarah's remarkable journey.

Genesis 18:10-15 - The Promise

Within these verses, we witness an extraordinary encounter between Sarah, her husband Abraham, and three heavenly visitors. They convey the promise of a son to Sarah, despite her advanced age.
