ONCE UPON A MARRIAGE—1 
JACOB &amp; LEAH (AND RACHEL)
-NEVER SATISFIED-
16 Now Laban had two daughters; the name of the older was Leah, and the name of the younger was Rachel. 17 Leah had weak eyes, but Rachel was lovely in form, and beautiful. Gen 29:16-17 
WHEN MARRIAGE IS YOUR ANSWER 
1) YOU COMPROMISE MORE THAN YOU SHOULD.
 
18 Jacob was in love with Rachel and said, "I'll work for you seven years in return for your younger daughter Rachel…" Gen 29:18
 
2) BECOME DEMANDING. 

21 Then Jacob said to Laban, "Give me my wife. My time is completed, and I want to lie with her." Gen 29:21 

3) ALWAYS END UP DISSATISFIED. 

23 But when evening came, (Laban) took his daughter Leah and gave her to Jacob, and Jacob lay with her... 25 When morning came, there was Leah! So Jacob said to Laban, "What is this you have done to me? I served you for Rachel, didn't I? Why have you deceived me?" Gen 29:23, 25 
31 When the Lord saw that Leah was not loved, he opened her womb, but Rachel was barren. 32 Leah became pregnant and gave birth to a son. She named him Reuben, for she said, "It is because the Lord has seen my misery. Surely my husband will love me now." Gen 29:31-32 
SEARCHING FOR THE WRONG ONE 

· TO REALLY BE FULFILLED IN LIFE, YOU HAVE TO FIND THE ONE. 



· GOD IS YOUR ONE AND YOUR SPOUSE IS YOUR TWO. 

35 She conceived again, and when she gave birth to a son she said, "This time I will praise the Lord." So she named him Judah. Then she stopped having children. Gen 29:35 
Note: Leah (not Rachel) was the mother of Judah. Through him, Jesus, the Savior of the world would one day be born.
