Jacob


OK so last Sunday I preached on Jacob wrestling with the angel at the Jabbok river. A fascinating passage and I spent a lot of time reading and researching to make sense of it. I though I gave the message a good run.

I write this blog four days later lying in hospital recovering from a broken hip after crashing my mountain bike. One of my elders who was unable to make worship called to say that on wednesday shortly after hearing about my accident opened his daily devotional to find the Genesis 32 passage on Jacob having his disclocated whilst wrestling the angel.

Rather strange?

Of course if we beleive there are no coincedences then the question must be asked...what exactly IS God trying to say to me?
