I just made the realization that all three patriarchs were maimed in some way, yet God accomplished His designs through them anyway:
1. Abraham was circumcised in his old age, yet still begat Isaac.
2. Isaac was blind and wanted to give his blessing to Esau, yet Jacob still got it.
3. Jesus literally made Jacob to limp, yet He also saved him from the wrath of his brother Esau and increased his descendants, as promised.
