Genesis17:17
17 Then Abraham fell upon his face, and laughed and said in his heart, shall a Child be born unto him that is an hundred years old, and shall Sarah that is ninety years old bear?
Through admiration and holy rejoycing at so great a blessing, not through unbelief, as Sarah did Gen. 18. 12. 13. as appears from Rom. 4. 19, 20. And though the outward act was the same in both, yet God discerned their differing dispositions and intentions therein.
