Struggling With God and Man

Listen to the Podcast

Good morning!

Here is today's communion meditation.

Lately, we've talked about overcoming.  

We talked about how darkness has not overcome light and how Jesus said to be of good cheer when we face problems, because he has overcome the world. 

We also talked about how our faith can help us overcome the world, and that the God who is in you is greater than the world.

While thinking about these things I came across the story of Jacob wrestling with God. 

In Genesis 32:28, “Your name will no longer be Jacob, but Israel, because you have struggled with God and with humans and have overcome.”

In Hebrew the word for "overcome," is "yakol," which means... to overcome, prevail, be victorious, or well able.  

In today's communion we are asking God to help us overcome in our struggles.

When you do your workouts remember that God is with you and he is greater than the world. This is a great opportunity to practice.
