10. God is fair, and he will remember all the work you have done. He will remember that you showed your love to him by helping his people and that you continue to help them.
11. We want each of you to be willing and eager to show your love like that the rest of your life. Then you will be sure to get what you hope for.
12. We don’t want you to be lazy. We want you to be like those who, because of their faith and patience, will get what God has promised.
13. God made a promise to Abraham. And there is no one greater than God, so he made the promise with an oath in his own name—an oath that he would do what he promised.
14. He said, “I will surely bless you. I will give you many descendants.”
15. Abraham waited patiently for this to happen, and later he received what God promised.
