Day 21: Genesis 27-29

Today on Meditating the Word, Jacob steals his brother Esau's blessing, and runs for his life to Paddan Aram to his mother's family. Esau marries one of Ishmael's daughters out of spite. Jacob sees a stairway to heaven in a dream. Jacob works seven years to have Rachel as a wife, but Laban tricks him into marrying Leah instead. Jacob agrees to work another seven years for Rachel. 

 

This is Day 22. Today we'll be reading Genesis Chapters 27-29.

Father God, we are so very thankful that you love us in spite of our brokenness. When we take things into our own hands, when we make a mess of things, you heal us and make things right again. Thank you for for your mercy and your unfailing love. Thank you for being with us always, wherever we go. Amen
