Jacob tries to manipulate blessings from God, but this moment at Bethel reveals a deeper truth: God isn’t ours to control. He chooses to bless us, not because of who we are, but because of who He is. This week invites you to move from bargaining with God to simply trusting Him.

Scripture: ⁠Genesis 28:10–22⁠

Reflection Question: Where in your life have you tried to control or bargain with God? What might it look like to surrender that area to His care instead?
