Rachel

Part 1 Gen 29:20 And Jacob served seven years for Rachel; and they seemed unto him [but] a few days, for the love he had to her.

Have you ever wondered what it must be like to just see your destiny and fall in love? In a glance, watch your heart and soul escape the boundaries you set in place and fall in love without a word spoken or a even a touch…You just knew!

I used to think that was possible 15-20 years ago. When my heart was still tender and my opinion and thoughts were considered naïve. Long before the systematic rules of theology and professors great wisdom drown out my adolescent hope that all things where possible with God.

It’s 20 years later now and I have a story to share with anyone that will hear me.

Years ago I gave up on the notion that there was one person for me. I was instructed that marriage was about the right choice based on the Scriptures and that any one that fulfilled these items would be a fine option. This of course would open up opportunities (and with the right selection) further a young ministers career.

So I did just that…wanting to be Biblical and obedient I set out to find a good wife…a gift from the Lord. I met several good options…of course having my heart broke a few times along the way. Then as it would happen I met someone that met all the requirements and seemingly love was born, but under the surface a storm was brewing. Satan had begun his wicked plan to destroy.
