B90 Day 2 SOAP: He is there, even when I don't realize it

Today's Reading: Genesis 17-28

Scripture:  Genesis 28:16  "Then Jacob awoke from his sleep and said, "Surely the Lord is in this place, and I did not know it."

Observation:  Jacob is on the run because of something very wrong that he did.  He had to bunk out in the open with a rock as his pillow and in this seemingly God forsaken place Jacob has an awesome encounter with God and God promises him that He will not leave him.

Application:  Even when I've messed up big time and it may seems like there is no hope, there is because God will not leave me.

Prayer:  Lord, I fail so many times.  I don't understand how You can continue to care for me, but You do.  Thank-You.  Help me, and others like me, to realize that You never give up caring and You never leave.
