heavy hurting hopeless

was working on this thought during church this morning. even the mind of a minister's wife can wonder occasionally. we all have heavy hearts sometimes. we all hurt, for either ourselves or others. and there are just times when we feel so overwhelmed that we just feel hopeless.

Jacob stole Esau's blessing even though Issac questioned the voice he still was swayed by what he felt... the hairy goatskin which he thought was the arms of the oldest son. we hear the voice of God, yet we turn and go in the opposite direction because it just feels right. obedience is better than sacrifice yet sacrifice is often part of the obedience. obedience is better than what feels right. know that God is always right regardless of the feeling.
