"Times of war and conflict are very familiar to us now. It is true that there are times of peace that can be enjoyed by generations of people, but so quickly war can raise its ugly head. In the West we have largely managed to mitigate the effects of war on our societies. Not all of our sons and daughters have to serve in the military, so for many of us it is our economics and our news feeds that see the most damage in wartimes.

These troubled desires that James speaks of are evident throughout human history. With Jacob and Esau, they were present as well. In our reading today, Jacob begins to make peace with his brother.
