[:en]Jacob agreed to work 7 years for the right to marry his boss’ daughter Rachel. But after fulfilling his contract, he was given Leah instead of Rachel. Jacob was disappointed but Leah was worst because she was forced to marry a man who did not love or want her! But in the end, it was Leah whom Jacob honored and buried in the family grave plot of Abraham and Sarah, Isaac & Rebekah (Ge. 49″30) And it was through the lineage of Leah, who in life thought she was unloved that God blessed the world with our Savior.
Jesus can bring justice and restore our hope even in the midst of our discouragement and desperation.[:]
