Jacob was constantly planning, scheming, wanting, and waiting. God was faithfully in thebackground, working through this much-flawed man. Jacob, ever seeking control of his circumstances.God, ever sovereign over Jacob’s circumstances. And in the midnight fight, God changed his name andhis destiny and gave him a testimony.Where have you and are you currently wrestling with what God has for you? What placedo you cling to control?
