Genesis 32: 22-30 — Jacob Wrestles with God

I love this passage. I really should preach four or five times on this come next summer. But if Sara/Abraham are us, Jacob is really us. A trickster who fools himself for a while but then his ways meet someone better at it than he is ... and God calls Jacob back to face his brother. We all wrestle with God and I would hope and pray are marked by that struggle, but then I love this passage.
