Are you struggling with feeling overlooked, unloved or fogotten-especially when it comes to relationship? Maybe you're still single and wondering if God has forgotten about your desires.

In this podcast we discuss the Biblical story of Leah, Jacob and Rachel. Although Leah and Rachel are sisters, Jacob was tricked into marrying them both but his heart always loved and wanted the younger sister Rachel. But Rachel and Leah's father gave Leah to Jacob first as she was the older sister. Many women today feel that sense of either being single or possible in a relationship but still feeling alone, unloved or unappreciated. My older sister lived a life like Leah. She longed to be loved by her husbands. She had 3 marriages and through those marriages she loved them unconditionally, though they never truly valued or cared for her as a husband should have. Her first husband was older than her and often rented places without my sister. My sister would follow him where ever it was and at 1 of those places I recall it was a run down place with rats running across the floor, which my sister still endured living with him. Years later she divorced him and eventually married her 2nd husband. This 2nd husband did not respect my sister at all, as 1 time I slept over their home and he brought another women over that slept in the same bed as him. Though I knew my sister understood, she never stood up for herself and allowed this man to do that. Years later she divorced him and eventually married her last and 3rd husband before she went home to the Lord. From the beginning, this 3rd husband told my sister he didn't want to get into a relationship with her. He definitely showed it by never taking care of her, but my sister continue to stay with him regardless of how he treated her. They eventually got married and fought a lot with him constantly kicking her and her daughter out of the house. When my sister had a stroke and was unable to take care of herself so she went to live with my mother until she passed away while sleeping. I witnessed my sister longing to be loved by a man. The longing for him to take care of her and love her unconditionally as she did. My heart often broke for her. I wish I started this podcast and blog before her passing to give her some comfort in finding the love and peace in God as he is the only one that can fill her with what she longs most. I truly miss my sister and often think of her now and then, but I know she is in the best place to be loved.
