“For this is how the holy women who hoped in God used to adorn themselves, by submitting to their own husbands, as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord. And you are her children, if you do good and do not fear anything that is frightening.” (1 Pet. 3:5–6) I’m an expat. Our family has lived in Dubai for almost 20 years. My husband is the pastor of an evangelical, English-speaking church, and it’s been a joy to watch as people from all different backgrounds grow in the faith and come to know Christ in this majority-Muslim country. It took time, but a country that wasn’t my own now feels like home. Still, I’m often waiting. My children are grown and live in other countries, so I’m tied to my calendar, scheduling when I’ll see them again. This type of waiting is exciting, but others are excruciating: Waiting to see what will happen to a family member diagnosed with dementia. Waiting for loneliness or depression to end. Waiting for difficult circumstances to change. Life is full of waiting. Often there’s pain in the waiting, but for the Christian, there’s always hope. Sarah, the wife of Abraham the patriarch, lived a life of waiting. She was the ultimate expat. She waited for her travels to come to an end, for a place she could call home, and for a child to call her own. She didn’t have an easy life. When God called her husband, Abraham, to leave his country, family, and religion behind, Sarah obediently went with him. She, too, left everything. She left the way of life she knew. Together, they were sojourners, living in tents, in lands not their own. Regular travel brought constant change and danger, including famine and potential enemies on every side. And Sarah no longer had little pagan gods to manipulate into providing her food and safety. Her husband worshiped the Lord, the God Most High, the One who made heaven and earth. This big God was now the only One to whom she could turn. She couldn’t control him. He did things his way. Was he a God she could put her hope in? Waiting for the Promised Son God called Abraham out of his country into a land he would show him. God said he would bless Abraham, making him into a great nation. He promised that in Abraham’s offspring all the nations of the earth would be blessed (Gen. 22:18). But there was one problem: Sarah was barren. They had no son to produce grandchildren. How would Abraham become a great nation with no heir? Sarah would have to wait on the Lord to fulfill his promise. The Lord promised that Abraham’s offspring would inherit the land. But Canaan’s environment was as hostile as its people and as barren as Sarah’s womb. When famine hit, Abraham took Sarah to Egypt. Fearing for his life, Abraham led Sarah to deceive Pharaoh, telling his men they were mere siblings. So Pharaoh took the beautiful Sarah into his house. Imagine Sarah’s fear. What could she do? How would God fulfill his promise with her in the hands of another man? Life is full of waiting. Often there’s pain in the waiting, but for the Christian, there’s always hope. Abraham jeopardized Sarah and the promise, but the Lord rescued her by afflicting Pharaoh and his house with plagues (12:17). Abraham received riches and Sarah was given back to her husband. The Lord had done it. So back to Canaan they went with more sheep and donkeys and camels. And more waiting on the Lord to give them the promised son. After 10 years in Canaan, Sarah took matters into her own hands. She decided on surrogacy. Turning her husband’s leadership on its head (“Abram listened to the voice of Sarai,” 16:2), she convinced him to take her servant Hagar to produce an heir. In language eerily like the fall of Adam and Eve, Moses tells us Sarah “took Hagar the Egyptian, her servant, and gave her to Abram her husband as a wife” (v. 3, emphasis added). Hagar’s pride swelled along with her belly, and “when she saw that she had conceived, she looked with contempt” on Sarah (v. 4). Sarah responded by blaming her husband and abusing Hagar, chasing her away. But God came to Hagar’s rescue in the desert. Sarah had tried to do things her own way. She selfishly reasoned, “It may be that I shall obtain children by her” (v. 2). Now Hagar had a son, and still Sarah waited for the promised one. Another decade of waiting went by. Sarah had gone through menopause. Her 90-year-old womb wasn’t only barren—it was dead: “The way of women had ceased to be with Sarah” (18:11). But the Lord came again to Abraham and within earshot of Sarah told him their waiting was soon to be over. “The Lord said, ‘I will surely return to you about this time next year, and Sarah your wife shall have a son’” (v. 10). Could it be true? Was the hoped-for son soon to come? Surely not. Sarah laughed to herself at the thought of a worn-out woman, married to an old man, bearing a son. It’s impossible! She had waited, but the Lord hadn’t opened her womb. There was now no chance of conceiving. She should have rejoiced at God’s promise, but Sarah’s hope seems to have died along with her womb. Yet her lack of hope didn’t thwart God’s plans. The Lord confronted Sarah through Abraham, saying, “Why did Sarah laugh and say, ‘Shall I indeed bear a child, now that I am old? Is anything too hard for the Lord?’” (vv. 13–14). Sarah denied her laughter even with the Lord’s question ringing in her ears. With only a year to wait, Abraham and Sarah once again took matters into their own hands. This time, Abraham gave his “sister” to Abimelech. To save his skin, he endangered the wife for whom he should lay down his life, and Sarah went along with the scheme. But God came to the rescue again. He intervened to save his people and protect his promise, vindicating Sarah’s honor in the process. Finally, the time came when Sarah’s waiting was over: “The Lord visited Sarah as he had said, and the Lord did to Sarah as he had promised. And Sarah conceived and bore Abraham a son in his old age at the time of which God had spoken to him” (21:1–2, emphasis added). Abraham was 100. Sarah was 90. God had made them wait. He’d put them in circumstances that made the birth of a son impossible. But here was Isaac, the promised son, life from Sarah’s dead womb. Sarah’s empty arms were finally full. God had said. God had promised. God had spoken. And now Sarah’s laughter of doubt turned to laughter of joy for the baby nursing at her breast. Truly nothing is too hard for the Lord. Hope in God I wonder what you’re waiting for. The degree or dream job? Meeting the right man? Double lines on a pregnancy test? The diagnosis or the cure? The pain to go away? Your loved one to come to know Jesus? The dreary cloud over life to vanish? Waiting is difficult. Like Sarah, we’re tempted to do things our own way. Instead of going to Scripture to remind ourselves of God’s promises, we doubt his goodness. Rather than go to the Lord in prayer, we’re pulled down into despair. Sarah waited for decades. She faced difficulty and danger—and she dealt with her own sin. But God is faithful to fulfill his word to his people. He is the God “who gives life to the dead and calls into existence the things that do not exist” (Rom. 4:17). This is the God whom Abraham and Sarah left kindred and country to worship. He’s the God who sustained them through famine and danger and dysfunction. The One who creates out of nothing is the One who promised them a son. And God keeps his promises. He is a God on whom we can wait. Sarah is named a hero of the faith in Hebrews. Is this surprising to you? It doesn’t mean she was a superhero. Her faith wobbled here and there. It even teetered on the brink. Like when she took Hagar and gave her to Abraham to produce the promised offspring. Or her reaction when the Lord said she would bear the promised son: “Sarah laughed to herself, saying, ‘After I am worn out, and my lord is old, shall I have pleasure?’” (Gen. 18:12). But Hebrews says, “By faith Sarah herself received power to conceive, even when she was past the age, since she considered him faithful who had promised” (11:11). God put Sarah in a place where it was clear that, apart from him, there was no way for her to conceive. She tried but couldn’t make it happen. It was God who brought life to her womb. There were highs and lows in Sarah’s life, like in each of ours, but Hebrews confirms the basic direction of her life was Godward. For all her stumbles, she was ultimately, through a journey of many years, characterized by faith. Instead of going to Scripture to remind ourselves of God’s promises, we doubt his goodness. Rather than go to the Lord in prayer, we’re pulled down into despair. So take heart. God is utterly reliable as we wait, even when in the waiting he calls us to do things that don’t make sense. Imagine Sarah, 90 years old and pregnant. She belonged in the geriatric ward, not the maternity ward! But in the end, Sarah didn’t look at her age, her physical condition, or her husband. She looked to God’s promise and was given a son. Peter uses Sarah as an example of a godly woman adorned not with external enhancements but with “the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God’s sight is very precious” (1 Pet. 3:4). She’s the mother of all women who hope in God, all who “do good and do not fear anything that is frightening.” She showed her hope in God by living a faithful life day to day with a disposition of submission toward her husband: “Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord” (v. 6). Sarah waited, doing good and fighting fear. And the God in whom she hoped was true to his word. Not even her sin could thwart his promises. The promised son was born. Nothing Is Impossible with God Thousands of years later, another promised son of Abraham was born. He’s the One through whom the blessing of Abraham extends to all families of the earth. Just like Sarah’s son, he was born in impossible circumstances, not from a barren womb but from the womb of a virgin. (Nothing is impossible with God [Luke 1:37]!) Conceived by the Holy Spirit, he’s not only the son of Abraham but the Son of the Most High. Jesus, Immanuel, God with us, who came to “save his people from their sins” (Matt. 1:21). Out of his great love, God sent his only Son. Jesus lived a perfect life and died for the sins of anyone who would repent and believe. God, who gives life to the dead, raised Jesus, showing he’d conquered sin and death. We put our hope in this preeminent, promised Son. Our hope is even more certain than Sarah’s. She knew God was good. He had repeatedly rescued her. But we know God’s ultimate rescue: “He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son” (Col. 1:13). Because Jesus is alive, we who believe in the promised Son hope with certainty that we’ll join him in the resurrection of the dead when he comes back to claim his kingdom. Hope is for those who are waiting. As you wait, in what are you hoping? If your hope is in good test results, you can be seriously disappointed. If it’s in a person or a family, it could bring you to despair. If it’s in a career or your reputation, such hope can leave you exhausted. And even if these hopes come to fruition, will they finally satisfy? Sarah didn’t hope ultimately in her husband or in making Canaan her home; she “hoped in God” (1 Pet. 3:5). Sarah knew she was a stranger and exile on the earth (Heb. 11:13). She was “seeking a homeland” (v. 14), but that homeland was above. Sarah “desire[d] a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called [her] God,” the God of a weak, flawed exile, for whom he has prepared a heavenly city (v. 16). With the eyes of faith, Sarah had hope for a secure future. The hope that comes in the Son will sustain you until all waiting is over. Like Sarah, we mustn’t set our hopes on the things of this world. God has “provided something better for us” (v. 40). The hope that comes in the Son will sustain you until all waiting is over. It’s “a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul, a hope that enters into the inner place behind the curtain,” where Christ is seated at the right hand of God, interceding for his people (6:19). We look forward to the city God has prepared, and one day Jesus will come and take us home. This hope changes everything. When we’re tempted by the pleasures of this world, we can instead do good because we know God “rewards those who seek him” (11:6), and his reward is greater than all the treasures of this earth. Even when we give in to sin, we can repent, knowing Christ has paid for all our sin and one day we’ll “be made perfect” in him (v. 40). When we’re threatened as exiles, we don’t have to fear what is frightening, because we know we’ll “rise again to a better life” (v. 35). God has prepared an eternity for us, face to face with him. When we encounter difficulties of all kinds, we can persevere, knowing God is faithfully preparing us for the heavenly city “whose designer and builder is God” (v. 10). The Christian life is a daily battle to put God at the center. We get so bogged down with details, we forget that every day brings us closer to eternity. Every battle with sin gets us nearer to perfection. These bodies that struggle and are wasting away will one day open their eyes to glory. Even now, Christ is our life. Hope That Doesn’t Disappoint So, like Sarah, set your hope on God. Set your hope on the future the promised Son has secured for you. Look to Jesus in the Scriptures and cast your burdens on the One who will comfort you. Read about women like Sarah and take heart. Consider God’s “precious and very great promises” (2 Pet. 1:4). And dwell on Christ’s death and resurrection, growing your longing for him. Meditating on the things of heaven will bolster your hope on earth. I love that 1 Peter is written to “elect exiles” (1:1). As an expat, I can relate to living in a place that isn’t my home. But whether I’m in the U.A.E. or the U.S.A., I’m an exile in this world. If you’re a Christian, you’re an exile too, traveling through a hostile world. In a letter written to a man named Diognetus from the second or third century, we read this description of early Christians: “Every foreign country is a homeland to them, and every homeland is foreign. . . . Their existence is on earth, but their citizenship is in heaven.” Christians are those who look forward to a future home. Christ has secured its borders. Our only hope is in him, the Promised Son. Like Sarah’s, our hope is in the God “who gives life to the dead and calls into existence the things that do not exist” (Rom. 4:17). That’s a great hope indeed! “May [this] God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope” (15:13).

The United States Supreme Court issued an opinion today with far-reaching implications for free speech protections from government censorship via third parties. The network evening newscasts chose NOT to cover that ruling, choosing instead to cover an inadvertently published and quickly retracted ruling on the left’s apex issue: abortion. The erroneously published opinion led CBS and NBC’s newscasts. ABC’s top story, as on most nights, was the weather. Here’s how NBC opened the Nightly News: LESTER HOLT: We start with one of the most anticipated decisions the Supreme Court will issue in these final days of its term, a ruling on Idaho's near total ban on abortion. The Court has not yet officially released its decision on whether emergency abortions can be allowed in Idaho. But, for a brief time today, a draft of the ruling appeared on the Court's website, suggesting it would rule in favor of permitting emergency abortions in Idaho. A Court spokesperson says the document had been posted “inadvertently”, but it's the second time in two years this has happened with a major Supreme Court decision on abortion.  That summation could have been the whole report, but then there wouldn’t be three additional minutes to burn on establishing a fake link between this opinion published in error, and the actual and very dangerous leak of Dobbs. Wherein the Idaho case was clearly a case of good-faith error, the Dobbs leak was the exact opposite: a malicious leak intended to inflame public opinion ahead of the ruling, an attempt to coerce two or more of the conservative justices into changing their votes, and an incitation of violence against the conservative justices. To clarify, the reason I use “leaked” in quotes in the title is mostly out of derision for a Regime Media that very clearly and evidently thinks you are all morons. These…unauthorized advance publications…are in no way alike.  Abortion, as the left’s apex issue and highest liturgy of the cult of Moloch, will always draw top billing across the Regime Media. With the exception of ABC if there’s severe weather going on.  What’s really unsettling here is that an opinion published in error drew a combined 10 minutes and 11 seconds across the major evening network newscasts, but an actual, published opinion that essentially allowed the government to continue to pressure social media companies to suppress speech it deems to be “disinformation” drew zero seconds of coverage. Let that sink in. I’m old enough to remember when the media presented themselves as defenders of free speech. These days, the only speech they seem interested in defending is that of the abortionist asking for forceps and vacuum cleaners. Dissenters and critics of government are on their own and out of luck. Click “expand” to view the full transcripts of the aforementioned reports as aired on their respective evening newscasts on Wednesday, June 26th, 2024: ABC WORLD NEWS TONIGHT ABC WORLD NEWS TONIGHT 6/26/24 6:34 PM DAVID MUIR:  In the meantime tonight, we turn to this major error at the Supreme Court. What appears to be a major new ruling on an abortion rights case that was briefly posted on the Court’s website before that decision was supposed to be made public. Now, the case is the first since Roe to test a state abortion ban, and whether federal law protects access to emergency abortion at the ER when a woman's health is at risk. The document signals the justices are poised to dismiss the case, sending it back to lower courts, which would allow emergency abortions in Idaho for now. This is the second time an abortion ruling got out early. You'll remember two years ago, an early draft of the decision overturning Roe was leaked months before it was announced. Terry Moran at the Supreme Court again tonight. TERRY MORAN: Tonight, an egregious error at the Supreme Court. Somehow, what appears to be a ruling from the justices on a major abortion case was temporarily published before it was supposed to be on the Court’s website. And it indicates that the Court will allow some abortions in Idaho in emergency situations, for now. The document was pulled down from the site within minutes, and the Court issued a statement -- "The opinion has not been released," it said. "The Court’s publications unit inadvertently and briefly uploaded a document to the Court’s website." The case marks the first time the justices are considering a state abortion ban since the Court overturned Roe versus Wade two years ago. At issue, whether Idaho's ban on abortions, except when necessary to prevent death, takes precedence over the federal law guaranteeing that patients in emergency rooms get the emergency care they need, even in the rare cases when that might mean an abortion. The document today reported and published by Bloomberg indicates that by a vote of 6-3, the Court’s majority will send the Idaho case back down to the lower courts. Still, there were fiery opinions on both sides. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson writing that the Court missed an opportunity to rule on the law. "Today's decision is not a victory for pregnant patients in Idaho”, she wrote. “It is delay. While this Court dawdles and the country waits, pregnant people experiencing emergency medical conditions remain in a precarious position, as their doctors are kept in the dark about what the law requires." And Justice Samuel Alito almost taunting his colleagues, saying the Court should have ruled today to allow Idaho's ban to stand. "Apparently, the Court has simply lost the will to decide the easy but emotional and highly politicized question that the case presents. That is regrettable." The premature posting of this document, another serious mistake at the Court, which has sought to tighten security after the draft of the Dobbs decision overturning Roe, written by Justice Alito, leaked months before it was announced. MUIR: So let's get right to Terry Moran, live at the Court again for us tonight for us. Terry, the Court making it very clear in this document, if it is to be believed it's the final document, that this is not the final opinion in this case. MORAN: That's right, David. Justices can revise their opinions up until the moment of an official release. And if this is the official ruling, then that means, starting whenever it is released, that doctors in Idaho emergency rooms will be able to perform abortions if needed, in order to prevent serious harm to a woman's health. David? MUIR: Terry Moran, you’ll be standing by at the Court tomorrow. We’ll see if it comes tomorrow officially. Thank you, Terry.  CBS EVENING NEWS: CBS EVENING NEWS 6/26/24 6:30 PM NORAH O’DONNELL: The stunning news tonight from the Supreme Court, admitting a document from one of the most highly anticipated cases of this term was accidentally leaked. Good evening. I'm Norah O'Donnell, and thank you for being with us. And we don't know for certain that it is the final opinion that was uploaded and first reported by Bloomberg News, but if it is true, this signals the justices are poised to side with the Biden administration by reinstating a lower court order, for now, that allows hospitals in Idaho to perform abortions during a medical emergency. Why does this matter? Well, the Associated Press found that this year, Idaho to medevac six women out of the state following a miscarriage and they were not treated in an emergency room. A Supreme Court spokesperson confirmed the document was inadvertently and briefly posted online. This is the second time in recent years that an abortion opinion from the nation's highest court has been revealed ahead of the decision. It's an extraordinary breach of protocol. CBS's Jan Crawford covers the TCourt for us and has new reporting. JAN CRAWFORD: The draft opinion in one of the most closely watched cases of the term was briefly and inadvertently posted on the Court’s website, and Bloomberg News grabbed a copy. If it stands as the final decision in the case, it would mean emergency abortions in Idaho could resume, at least for the time being, if a woman's health is at serious risk. Doctors in the state have put those abortions on hold, fearing prosecution because Idaho’s restrictive law allows the procedure only when the woman's life is in danger, or in cases of rape or incest. JESSICA KROLL: We are not legal lawyer people. We just want to practice medicine. Standard of care that takes years, years, decades, even, to develop. CRAWFORD: Idaho, 1 of 6 states that ban abortion except to save a woman's life, enacted its law two years ago after the Supreme Court overturned Roe vs. Wade. The Biden administration sued, arguing those restrictive bands are at odds with a federal law that requires hospitals to provide stabilizing care in emergencies, care that could include abortions when a woman faces serious health complications. Idaho said its law allows doctors to perform abortions in those rare cases, when a woman is facing irreversible health conditions, but a lower court agreed with the administration and said the federal law on emergency care overrode Idaho's ban. The administration had urged the Court not to take up the case, and in the opinion posted today, five of the justices agreed to dismiss the case, saying it was too soon for the Court to decide. Three conservatives dissented, saying the Court should rule for Idaho, and the newest justice, Ketanji Brown Jackson, also said the Court should move now but to rule against Idaho. O’DONNELL: And Jan Crawford joins us now. Jan, this could be so interesting. You could ask at this debate tomorrow night:would a Trump administration have sued Idaho to protect a woman's health. Do we know, though, when this decision could become public but for real by the Supreme Court? CRAWFORD: No. We don't know. We've got more decisions coming tomorrow morning and then again on Friday, possibly into next week, and of course this is just one of those major cases that we are still waiting on as they wrap up the term. There are those two big cases involving former President Trump, whether or not he is immune from prosecution for his actions around January 6th, and if he is not immune, what can he be charged with? We won't know which opinions are coming down until they actually announce them from the bench, and like I said, that could be anytime between now and sometime next week. O’DONNELL: And we will break in tomorrow morning, Friday morning with that news when it comes. Thank you, Jan Crawford. NBC NIGHTLY NEWS: NBC NIGHTLY NEWS  6/26/24 6:32 PM LESTER HOLT: We start with one of the most anticipated decisions the Supreme Court will issue in these final days of its term, a ruling on Idaho's near total ban on abortion. The Court has not yet officially released its decision on whether emergency abortions can be allowed in Idaho. But, for a brief time today, a draft of the ruling appeared on the Court's website, suggesting it would rule in favor of permitting emergency abortions in Idaho. A Court spokesperson says the document had been posted “inadvertently”, but it's the second time in two years this has happened with a major Supreme Court decision on abortion. Laura Jarrett has more on today's misstep. LAURA JARRETT: Tonight, a mistake of epic proportions rocking the U.S. Supreme Court. A closely watched decision on abortion set to come down any day now mistakenly and briefly posted to the Court's website this morning, indicating the high court is likely on the verge of allowing emergency abortions in Idaho. The document, obtained by Bloomberg Law before it was quickly removed from the website. The Court spokeswoman explaining “the Court's Publications Unit inadvertently and briefly uploaded a document to the website”, adding that the Court's official opinion will be issued in due course. NBC News has not verified whether the document is the final version of the opinion or a draft, but the media's rare advanced access in this case -- harkening back to a leak in another abortion case just two years ago in Dobbs, when Politico published the draft decision overturning Roe v. Wade. The current battle over Idaho's law, which criminalizes nearly all abortions except to save the mother's life. The Biden administration sued the state arguing that abortion ban directly conflicts with a federal law requiring hospitals that receive federal funding provide abortions to women facing health emergencies, even if not on the brink of death. That conflict, doctors say, puts them in a dangerous bind. SARA THOMSON: It's a really heavy burden to carry to have the five years of potential incarceration to take care of your patients. JARRETT: The document posted today and later published by Bloomberg in full includes an unsigned opinion from the court punting on the ultimate dispute for now and sending it back to the lower court, which means women in Idaho will be able to obtain emergency abortions while the lawsuit continues to play out. But it also highlights deep divisions on the high court. The justices trading barbs in the document. Justice Jackson saying, “today's decision is not a victory for pregnant patients in Idaho… While this Court dawdles and the court waits, pregnant people experiencing emergency medical conditions remain in a precarious position.” While Justice Alito calls the Court’s decision “baffling”, saying “the Court has simply lost the will to decide the easy but emotional and highly politicized question that the case presents.” HOLT: A remarkable development, Laura. Any sense of when the Court might release the official opinion in the Idaho case? JARRETT: Lester, we could see it as soon as tomorrow. The fact that the Court is saying it already made its way to the publication unit means that it’s nearing completion. So we could see it tomorrow at 10 AM, or Friday morning. Lester. HOLT: Laura Jarrett, thanks.
