**Genesis 27:25** — *"Serve me," said Isaac, "and let me eat some of my son's game, so that I may bless you."*
Isaac's hands were dim. His discernment had narrowed to the warmth of a meal and the scent of familiar clothing. Yet even here — in a moment clouded by deception — the blessing he carried was real and weighty.
This is not a story that celebrates Jacob's cunning. It is a story that exposes how profoundly we can be deceived when our senses become our only guide. Isaac trusted touch and taste over the covenant wisdom he had walked with for decades.
Scripture reminds us in Proverbs 3:5 — *"Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding."*
The steward who abides in God's Word is not easily misled by what feels familiar.
Consider the blessings you carry — and whether you are guarding them with covenant wisdom or merely with comfort.
