Gen 30:2 | MHM | STEP | v. 2 : Jacob became angry with Rachel and rebuked her for her words. He said, "Am I in God's stead, who has withheld children from you?" He reminded Rachel that only God can give children, not people . Jacob understood that God controls these things, and it is wrong to put our trust in people instead of God (Revelation 3:7; Job 11:10, 12:14 ). We should not expect people to do what only God can do.
