And the thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight because of his son.
Genesis 21:11
Before God's promise came in Gen 18, Sarah thought she could help God in Gen 16 by giving her slave as a concubine to her husband, and 14yrs later God made the promise to Sarah.
Maybe it would have come sooner if she didn't try to help God, we may never know, but she regretted her action which I'm sure she thought was the best thing at the time.
We are just like her, we sometimes feel we need sth now or never. It ain't always the way we want, doing things our way just prolong the process, there are no shortcuts to God's, it's a narrow and long road, Be ready to travel it no matter how diff cos at the end, you will arrive at God's appointed time, going your way or taking shortcuts only prolong the journey.
Always tell yourself, "just one more step". Keep believing!
