playing favorites

Gen. 25:27-28 (NLT)
As the boys grew up, Esau became a skillful hunter. He was an outdoorsman, but Jacob had a quiet temperament, preferring to stay at home.  Isaac loved Esau because he enjoyed eating the wild game Esau brought home, but Rebekah loved Jacob.

​This Sunday, Aug. 1, our focus moves to Isaac and Rebekah's twin sons Jacob and Esau who seem destined to be at odds even before their birth.  But the favoritism their parents show sure doesn't help the relationships between these brothers.  How does the idea of scarcity figure in?  That there isn't enough love, enough grace, enough blessing to go around.  Even though scarcity was an issue for this Genesis family, and may be in yours, we will be reminded of the abundance found in relationship with God.  See you in person or online this Sunday!
