—Genesis 25:19-34
by: Cheri Appel.
Both Jacob and Esau made “free will” decisions that caused family trauma and separation. Later, Jacob became a man of God when he believed and lived a life of faith. Have you ever made a major error in judgement? Was there upheaval in your family from someone’s selfish actions? The trouble it caused and the strained relationships that remain are painful, but have you appreciated the good God brought out of these same circumstances? When God uses our story to change another person’s life, His Light shines through our broken pieces causing a beautiful reflection of His Glory.
