SiblingsIt is said, "Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely." The story of Jacob and Esau is a story of power abused for the sake of self-advancement. The Jesus-story shows us the divine example of power, "the greatest among you shall be the servant of all...for the Son of Man came not to be served, but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many." This week, look for opportunities to serve...and in doing so, reflect the power of Jesus.

RestingRest...it's something we often long for but find it's availability allusive. The longing of God is for our deep resting rooted in relationship with Him. This resting does not preclude storms and droughts but in their midst we have a quiet, confident, stillness in which love holds us strong. As David writes, we too find, "The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want....Even though I walk through the darkest valley, your rod and staff they comfort me."

WrestlingWrestling with God sounds intimidating, yet that is the invitation of Scripture. Wrestling is a metaphor for intercession...bold, persistent intercession rooted in a deep sense of caring for God's name (character), people, and creation. "Your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven." Let's wrestle!

TrustingIt can be difficult to count stars amidst times of stress and fear. It can be difficult to believe the seemingly unbelievable when all around me is danger and destruction. Can we hear God speak, "I am your shield, I've got you now...I've got your future...I've got you...I am your shield."
