Outwitting One Another

Genesis 29 & 30

Inspired thots

Man.... whether male or female behaves alike; trying to outwit one another.

Leah and Rachel - competed with one another for Jacob's affection and favor
> competed for sons to prove their worthiness and their husband's love.

Laban and Jacob - competed to gain riches.
Laban tried to outwit Jacob twice:
1) giving Leah instead of Rachel
2) removing all speckled flock to avoid Jacob taking them but Jacob streaked Laban's better flock to gain abundance

When God's favor is upon someone, others will see and note; others get blessed too!
Christians should bring blessings to others. Walk right with God. He sees and hears all things.
