Weighed Down: Jacob and Esau’s Reconciliation Genesis 31:3; 32:3-32; 33:1-17 -

What do people worry about? Sometimes it’s easier to think about what other people are wondering than to jump deep into what we’re wondering. We start with a question that focuses on what people they know worry about. We hope this prompts an excellent conversation for kids to discover some of the ways they might worry and, more importantly, how they trust God with those situations.
We finish the month by discovering what happened to Jacob and Esau’s relationship. In Genesis 31:3, 32:3-32, and 33:1-17, we find out that Jacob knows that God wants him to return home after years of living away from Esau. After all that has happened, Jacob is worried about how Esau will respond to him. Jacob goes above and beyond to ensure his safety, but God has already prepared the way. Jacob and Esau reconcile. Esau goes home to his family and Jacob camps with his family in Canaan.
