The story of Jacob in the Bible teaches us that God is faithful to his chosen people, even when they are less than perfect. It also teaches us that God's ways are not always conventional, and that we should embrace them.It is as if God is reminding us that there are no perfect people, no perfect marriages, no perfect families, no perfect churches. Jacob was a liar, runner, cheater, and pretender, but God forgave him of his sins and used him to send Jesus into the world. He can forgive us and use us for His purposes as well.
