January 16 - Genesis 36:1-43

This chapter focuses on Esau's descendants.  So why a whole chapter on Esau's descendants when God's chosen lineage will flow through Jacob?  Maybe God wants us to know that he is attentive to all people.  Esau's family prospers and grows, too.  They weren't ignored by God.  But what did they do with their blessings...that's the real question all of us need to answer.  Not whether we've been blessed but what have we done with His blessings.
