Daily Devotional - October 4, 2021 - Genesis 30:1-43

Leah and Rachel are in competition for Jacob's time and attention. They are so devoted to having children by him that they even sacrifice their handmadens, Bilhah and Zilpah for this cause. Jacob is thinking that it's getting crowded where they live so he then goes to Laban to discuss the separation of his family from Laban's family.  Laban leaves but Jacob has devised a plan to while still keeping Laban's herds of animals. He keeps the healthy animals for himself and give Laban the sick or feeble animals in his plan.
