Uumama 35:1

Do you feel like a cloud of worry follows wherever you go? The key to overcoming your anxiety is found in the person of Jesus. He calls us to trust rather than despair - to "not be anxious" and to cast all our cares on Him. This plan is based on the new book Moving Beyond Anxiety by David Chadwick.

Have you ever heard the saying, “They really lived down to their name?” Not really. It is more likely that you would have heard it said that one lived up to their name. When one lives down to their name, it suggest there wasn’t much hope of good for them. In this series we look at the life of Jacob.

This devotional is about God changing Jacob to Israel. This is a process and the the way God works in our lives. It is good to understand the process and be alive to God's ways in our own lives, and allow Him to transform us to what He wants us to be.

In part four of our Genesis plan, we'll explore the story of Jacob's children, particularly Joseph in Egypt. Read about Joseph's dreams, the treachery of Jacob's sons against their brother, and his struggles in Egypt before ascending to power.
