But Isaac said to his son, “How is it that you have found it so quickly, my son?†He answered, “Because the LORD your God granted me success.” (Gen 27:20, ESV)
I find the specific choice of words, “the LORD your God” to be troubling, especially as a parent.
I want my children to have a personal faith of their own. I don’t want them to think of the Lord as “That God my dad worships.”
Actually, I want them to have a more real, personal faith than I had at their ages—living and tempered by both love and righteousness, by faith and reason.
It would be quite a long time before Jacob could truly call the Lord his own God, not merely that of his father.
It is not just the God you worship and your faith it is mine as well you were just the one who introduced me to it, if I didn’t follow this faith my life/afterlife goal wouldn’t be to FIGHT SATAN and win or lose and wear him out and then fight him again.
