Grasping

Sister readers, what does it mean to wrestle with God? Jacob did it in Genesis 32: 24 -26. Sparkfly has a friend who refuses to "let God go" until God blesses her. She's asked for ways to symbolize her petition and struggle.

Thankfully, our God welcomes us in dialogue.

Do you ever wrestle with God? What are some tangible ways to ritualize the struggle?

Do you really think the struggle should be ritualized?

I'm not sure that it should always be ritualized... but I think that sometimes it can be important and meaningful for us.

Right now, I feel like one of the few ways that I can tangibly "feel" God IS the struggle... so ritualizing the struggle matters to me because it's a reminder that God really is here and willing to struggle with me.
