Today's verse is Genesis 29:26-30 with Jennifer Slattery.
Laban replied, “It is not our custom here to give the younger daughter in marriage before the older one. Finish this daughter’s bridal week; then we will give you the younger one also, in return for another seven years of work.” And Jacob did so. He finished the week with Leah, and then Laban gave him his daughter Rachel to be his wife. Laban gave his servant Bilhah to his daughter Rachel as her attendant. Jacob made love to Rachel also, and his love for Rachel was greater than his love for Leah. And he worked for Laban another seven years.
"The next time you find yourself feeling crushed by the sting of rejection or alone in your pain, remind yourself of this truth: God still sees you, He's with you, and He loves you with a perfect and unconditional love."
