+--------A Persistent Belief; Abram's Thoughts On God's Promise

“I have known you exasperated;
a deer parched, hollow eyed, before
dust swirling from a cracked riverbed,
of ambition. I have known your back
scars, soul wounds, plodding
homeless against trunks of trees of
Mamre the Amorite praying for hope
heaven spoken. I know your wife’s
womb seeking to be opened to birth
nations. And yes, you will be father
to the world, stars as children.” This is
what God promised, to an old man
barely alive. But I believe. Somehow,
I believe Him.

------Genesis 15:1-7
After this, the word of the Lord came to Abram in a vision:
“Do not be afraid, Abram.
    I am your shield,
    your very great reward.”
But Abram said, “Sovereign Lord, what can you give me since I remain childless and the one who will inherit my estate is Eliezer of Damascus?” And Abram said, “You have given me no children; so a servant in my household will be my heir.” Then the word of the Lord came to him: “This man will not be your heir, but a son who is your own flesh and blood will be your heir.” He took him outside and said, “Look up at the sky and count the stars—if indeed you can count them.” Then he said to him, “So shall your offspring be.” Abram believed the Lord, and he credited it to him as righteousness. He also said to him, “I am the Lord, who brought you out of Ur of the Chaldeans to give you this land to take possession of it.”
