创世记 33:5

Through this devotional, we will discover the blessing of a person who is not often spoken about. His name is Asher, one of the sons of Jacob. Although his blessing is vast and profound, we will also read about his challenges and the trials he had to overcome.

Throughout his life in the book of Genesis, we see Jacob fighting. Fighting for status. Fighting for blessings. Fighting in relationships. What can followers of Jesus learn today from someone whose life was a constant struggle?

We often hear people say, "Fake it until you make it". Have you ever tried it, only to find yourself exposed and vulnerable in the end? In this plan, we will explore moments like that in Jacob's life. I hope that the next few days will inspire you to live more authentically in Christ.
