Genesis 28:10 Jacob left Beersheba and set out for Harran.
Holy Father, Just like Jacob, many of us feel a bit adrift at present. Everything seems…off. Thank You for being sovereign, for still being on Your throne. No matter how chaotic life feels, help me to remember that You are still God. You’ve got us.
Genesis 28:11 When he reached a certain place, he stopped for the night because the sun had set. Taking one of the stones there, he put it under his head and lay down to sleep.
Loving God, When I take my eyes off of You, when I get distracted by life, fear and anger, anxiety and bitterness creep in. Thank You that You are bigger than my feelings, outside of them. Help me, no matter what I’m feeling, to hold on to You, to trust You. You are God. You are sovereign. You’ve got us.
Genesis 28:12 He had a dream in which he saw a stairway resting on the earth, with its top reaching to heaven, and the angels of God were ascending and descending on it.
Precious Savior, Creator of the Universe, Thank You for Your fierce love of me. Thank You that You know every hair on my head, every tear that I cry. You haven’t forgotten me. You are with me. Even when it is hard for me to feel Your presence, You are there. Thank You for these truths that I can trust. Thank You for Your unending love. Amen.
Genesis 28:13 There above it stood the Lord, and he said: “I am the Lord, the God of your father Abraham and the God of Isaac. I will give you and your descendants the land on which you are lying.
Have a blessed day.
