Intro

It seems like yesterday. I was all by myself once again, just like the day that I had to run away from home for my life. My twin brother Esau was going to kill me. Why?

Are you perfect for God’s grace. God is so good and mercy, he even blessed me. I learned God loves me no matter what I am. Yes, I paid the price for my lie. Do you feel like you are not worthy of God’s love? Do you feel like God will not use you or forgive you?

Conclusion

In the womb he took his brother by the heel,

And in his maturity he contended with God.

Yes, he wrestled with the angel and prevailed;

He wept and sought His favor.

He found Him at Bethel

And there He spoke with us,

Even the Lord, the God of hosts,

The Lord is His name.

Therefore, return to your God,

Observe kindness and justice,

And wait for your God continually.
