Teaching Jacob holds on until daybreak

When life is a struggle, you can hold onto God and not let go - He meets you right in the middle of it.

  • Jacob held onto God all night and wouldn't let go. When something is a struggle, how can you "hold onto" God?
  • Jacob got a new name after meeting God - he was changed. How does spending time with God change us?
  • Jacob walked away with a limp, a reminder of that night forever. Have you had a hard time that taught you something about God you'll never forget?
