After 34 years as a fugitive on foreign soil, Yaakov returns home to resettle in his ancestral land. What makes him instigate a hazardous encounter with his brother Esav, who vowed to kill him for ‘stealing’ his blessing decades earlier? Did he really steal Esav’s blessing?
Terrified, yet ready to confront the failed relationship from his past, Yaakov prepares himself by sending gifts and words of appeasement to Esav and by offering a prayer of humility to God.
Acknowledging our own failures, large and small, what honest questions can help us to capitalize on the inevitable mistakes in our lives to bring us greater wholeness and success?
