A horse is broken when it is instantly obedient to the rider on its back. God is trying to break us, the way a cowboy saddle breaks a horse. In this passage we continue to look at God breaking Jacob, Rachel and Leah. The problem is this family is filled with jealousy, and jealousy sabotages the breaking process.
Broken people. Broken families. Broken relationships. Broken lives. As we continue through Genesis we discover that God works through broken families, broken families, broken relationships and broken lives. In fact, that's His speciality.
Most of us want to make wise decisions. The problem is that not many of us wise. In Genesis 47-48 we discover that wisdom only comes through time and mistakes. In fact, we learn that age, mistakes, and surrender are the price of wisdom.
