Faith & Obedience

Jacob is being called to new steps of faith and we witness that these steps of faith bring new problems & trails into his life. After his sons, Simeon & Levi take revenge upon a whole city, Jacob is driven right back into a place of fear & panic. Right in the middle of this chaos, God speaks to Jacob directing him back to Bethel, a place of worship and hearing the voice of God. Part of maturing as a Christian is learning that my prayers are not always for getting out of something, but rather asking for understanding in the middle of our difficulty. This is how God grows us in faith & obedience!
