What about Esau? And what about us?
Genesis 36

Nate Herrlin

What about us?

“Esau took his wives from the women of Canaan.”

“Nate insisted on being a missionary and ignored God’s calling to Kutztown.”

What would be a parallel statement for you?

Would you rather be part of a wealthy family, or a poor one?

You’re already part of God’s family.
Do you really need more than that?

You live for His GLORY, And He’ll give you His JOY.

Next Steps:

- Repent of my jealous/comparison mindset (get specific with God about this) and ask God to help me accept who He made me & where He put me.

- Write a letter to God thanking Him for making me who I am, and for putting me where He put me.

- Learn more about who I am by taking a spiritual gifts inventory or by experimenting with different ways to serve God's Kingdom.
(Ask PNate about this if you’re interested.)

- Write my own statement that parallels Esau’s in Genesis 36:2. What would my life be like if I went my own way? What is a next step I can take so that statement does NOT become my legacy?
