    Learning how to wait on God. Be patience while God is working.

    It is my examination that the contents listed here in verses 15-30, conveys the conviction that this man Jacob had a problem when it came down to trusting God.

     | 2,715 views

    Joseph is described as being well-built and handsome. These are the exact Hebrew words attributed to Rachel in 29:17. Joseph excels not only in proficiency but also in attractiveness. Perhaps because of this, his master's wife invites him to lie with her.

    The Well, The Women, And The Wait Series

     | 625 views

    We all have unsettled issues in our hearts. Some want to put a lot of time and distance between these unresolved issues, even a change of scenery, which may be necessary to get some clarity. I believe God wants us to identify these issues and work through them.

    Because of her "ugliness" (weak eyes) Leah was unnoticed, unwanted & unloved… and unmarried. She was literally a rejected woman. How did God help her overcome her rejection?

    A lady was walking down the street on her way to work & saw a parrot in a pet store. She went in to admire the bird, and suddenly the parrot spoke to her, “Hey lady. You’re ugly.” Well, the woman was deeply offended, and she stormed out of the store. But on her way home, she thought she’d ...read more

     | 1,096 views

    Leah’s story reminds us that God’s favour is not based on human approval. Though unloved by Jacob, she was loved by God and became an important part of His divine plan. Her life teaches us to find fulfilment in God rather than in people’s opinions.
