“He who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.” There is so much hope for us in that verse from Philippians 1:6. If we are being honest with ourselves it is likely that we often feel like an incomplete project at best. It is such good news for our soul to consider no only that God mercifully saved us, but that He fully intends to make us into the image of His Son, Jesus. In God’s grace and wisdom we get to see where God worked beautifully in the midst of really messy lives. Jacob, the second born of two twins to Isaac and Rebekah, didn’t set out to wrestle with God, but rather God set out to wrestle with Jacob. The story of Jacob proves that God wasn’t fighting against Jacob but that He very much was fighting for him. As we walk together through the true coming of age story of Jacob may we see this gracious and merciful providence in our own lives.

There is a truth given to us by Jesus that we need to believe. It’s actually to our advantage that Christ would go to the Father SO that the Spirit could be sent to us. The hope in this series would be that we would come to believe this as ardently as Jesus, Himself AND that we would long to know and enjoy all that we have in the Person and work of the Holy Spirit of God.

 “Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called sons of God.” Jesus, who is our prince of peace showed us what it looks like to be someone who makes peace. However, Jesus is THE Prince of Peace because He is only One who could ever make peace for us with God!
