I do hear people who lean more conservative talk about the principles of personal responsibility. For the christians on both right, left, center, libertarian and whatever other political leaning when will we acknowledge our part individually. When will we accept our part which is the biggest part in the state of our city, town, sate, country, and the world.

Two men Jacob and laban who struggle with the same thing deception, the Difference between the two men isn't anything in themselves but is in fact God.I misspoke in the video Jacob was to take the spotted and speckled cattle.

The womb of Rachel is opened by God after she tries her own way.

Sometimes we confuse being allowed to do something as approval.

God works out some unique situations in Isaacs life, and sends the very people who's envy put them at odds with him to him seeking favor.
