Do you really believe that God is Working for your good? In this story we see the 10 brothers of Jacob being tested, but we also see that Jacob is being tested too: Will Jacob trust God and revert to his old ways, or will he trust God and live his life in faith? Will Jacob be willing like his own grandfather Abraham when he offered up Isaac to the Lord- to entrust his only beloved son Benjamin into the hands of God? Jacob is having a whole new wrestling match with God - but Israel will win.
