00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:12.580
 Good morning. My name is Matthew Capone and I'm one of the pastors here at Cheyenne Mountain Presbyterian Church and it's my joy to bring God's word to you today.

00:00:12.580 --> 00:00:29.980
! We're continuing our series in the book of Genesis, which you'll remember is the origin story of God's people Israel. This summer we're in the story of Isaac and Jacob, mostly Jacob, found in chapters 25 through 36.

00:00:29.980 --> 00:00:45.780
 Remember last week Jacob got married to two sisters, Leah and Rachel. He married Rachel because he loved her and he married Leah because Laban tricked him into marrying Leah.

00:00:45.780 --> 00:00:58.579
 So we begin this week with a big problem. We have two women and one man and one woman is loved and the other woman is unloved.

00:00:58.579 --> 00:01:10.900
 In fact, the first verse of this passage, verse 31, tells us she's not just unloved, she's hated. So you don't have to be a genius to know that we are headed into some big, big trouble.

00:01:11.459 --> 00:01:22.239
 Okay, it's with that that I'm going to invite you to turn with me to Genesis chapter 29 starting at verse 31, which you'll find on page 7 of your worship guide.

00:01:22.239 --> 00:01:26.199
 And as we come to this passage, remember that this is God's word.

00:01:27.199 --> 00:01:35.159
 Jeremiah chapter 23 tells us that God's word is like a hammer that breaks a rock into pieces,

00:01:35.159 --> 00:01:43.119
 which means that there's nothing so powerful that God's word is not more powerful still.

00:01:43.120 --> 00:01:49.260
 And so that's why we read now Genesis 29 starting at verse 31.

00:01:51.260 --> 00:01:58.800
 When the Lord saw that Leah was hated, he opened her womb, but Rachel was barren.

00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:03.620
 And Leah conceived and bore a son and she called his name Reuben.

00:02:03.620 --> 00:02:16.360
 Again, she conceived and bore a son and said,

00:02:16.360 --> 00:02:33.240
 Now this time my husband will be attached to me.

00:02:33.240 --> 00:02:36.360
 Because I have born him three sons.

00:02:36.879 --> 00:02:40.000
 Therefore, his name was called Levi.

00:02:41.460 --> 00:02:45.040
 And she conceived again and bore a son and said,

00:02:45.040 --> 00:02:48.280
 This time I will praise the Lord.

00:02:49.060 --> 00:02:51.680
 Therefore, she called his name Judah.

00:02:52.439 --> 00:02:54.780
 Then she ceased bearing.

00:02:55.879 --> 00:03:00.600
 I invite you to pray with me as we come to this portion of God's word.

00:03:00.599 --> 00:03:07.919
 Our Father in heaven, we do praise you and thank you again this morning for your word.

00:03:08.079 --> 00:03:10.299
 And we ask that you would honor your promise,

00:03:10.439 --> 00:03:14.659
 that it would be like a hammer that breaks a rock into pieces,

00:03:14.919 --> 00:03:18.659
 that you would use it to soften our hearts.

00:03:19.659 --> 00:03:25.519
 You'd show us our sin, our great need for the gospel and for salvation.

00:03:25.520 --> 00:03:31.380
 And you'd show us Jesus, how he meets us at that very same place of need.

00:03:31.960 --> 00:03:37.860
 Now we ask that you would use your word this morning to grow our love and our affection for Jesus Christ.

00:03:38.400 --> 00:03:41.620
 You'd use it to grow our reverence and our all for him.

00:03:42.180 --> 00:03:46.600
 You'd use it to lead us in obedience, in faith, following after you.

00:03:46.599 --> 00:03:50.699
 And we ask all of these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.

00:03:51.099 --> 00:03:51.340
 Amen.

00:03:54.460 --> 00:04:05.879
 In 2022, Forbes magazine officially named Elon Musk as the richest man in the entire world.

00:04:06.240 --> 00:04:10.479
 He was able to finally displace Jeff Bezos of Amazon.

00:04:10.900 --> 00:04:14.099
 Jeff was dropped all the way to number two.

00:04:14.099 --> 00:04:16.459
 So he reaches this great accomplishment.

00:04:17.060 --> 00:04:22.060
 Now that same year, 2022, Elon Musk goes on this trip to Greece.

00:04:22.360 --> 00:04:30.319
 He spends time with a man named Ari Emanuel, who is a entertainment and media mogul.

00:04:30.639 --> 00:04:36.339
 And he's visiting him in Greece because Ari is trying to help them work out this deal for Elon to buy Twitter.

00:04:36.879 --> 00:04:41.219
 And while he's there, he spends time on Ari's yacht,

00:04:41.220 --> 00:04:46.280
 which makes the news because of pictures that are now famous.

00:04:46.760 --> 00:04:50.760
 There's pictures of Elon and Ari, and they're both on the yacht.

00:04:51.100 --> 00:04:52.580
 They're both shirtless.

00:04:52.740 --> 00:04:56.700
 And that's the problem because there is a stark contrast.

00:04:57.920 --> 00:05:03.220
 Ari Emanuel is looking lean and muscular and jacked.

00:05:03.220 --> 00:05:09.180
 Elon Musk, not so much.

00:05:11.180 --> 00:05:15.220
 Walter Isaacson published a biography a few years ago of Musk, and he says this.

00:05:15.220 --> 00:05:30.580
 He, Elon, was photographed on a yacht looking pale and blubbery alongside Emanuel, that's Ari Emanuel, who looked preternaturally trim and tan.

00:05:30.579 --> 00:05:32.759
 So Elon is embarrassed.

00:05:32.759 --> 00:05:36.719
 He gets shamed on social media, and you think that's going to be the end of it.

00:05:36.779 --> 00:05:47.419
 No, it actually gets worse because Elon's unhinged father, Errol Musk, goes on to an Australian radio show shortly thereafter to discuss the incident.

00:05:47.579 --> 00:05:48.459
 And he says this.

00:05:49.060 --> 00:05:52.579
 Elon is very strongly built, but he's been eating badly.

00:05:52.579 --> 00:05:59.419
 He says he's told his son, hey, you need to take a weight loss supplement.

00:06:00.399 --> 00:06:05.620
 Then the interviewer on the Australian radio station asks Errol, are you proud of your son, Elon?

00:06:05.800 --> 00:06:07.759
 And he says, no.

00:06:09.319 --> 00:06:16.079
 Then he proceeds to talk about Elon's younger brother, Kimball, who he describes as his pride and joy.

00:06:16.079 --> 00:06:24.560
 So just so you understand how bad it is, Elon's father in public on a radio station says three things.

00:06:24.680 --> 00:06:26.740
 One, my son really needs to lose weight.

00:06:26.959 --> 00:06:28.500
 Two, I'm not proud of him.

00:06:28.659 --> 00:06:32.099
 And three, I really like his younger brother.

00:06:35.459 --> 00:06:37.060
 So what does Elon do next?

00:06:39.000 --> 00:06:42.159
 Elon does what his father has told him to do.

00:06:42.159 --> 00:06:45.339
 He starts taking a GLP-1.

00:06:45.339 --> 00:06:47.759
 And he starts taking a weight loss supplement.

00:06:51.519 --> 00:07:00.139
 The richest man in the world still cares what his father thinks of him.

00:07:01.739 --> 00:07:08.859
 Now there's a lesson here about how we speak to our children, whether we can, we choose to bring them life or death with our words.

00:07:08.939 --> 00:07:09.959
 That's for another day.

00:07:09.959 --> 00:07:12.180
 The point of the passage and that story is this.

00:07:12.299 --> 00:07:23.539
 There is a longing in the human heart for identity, for belonging, for acceptance, for love, for connection, for approval.

00:07:25.599 --> 00:07:33.259
 Being the richest man in the world does not take that away.

00:07:33.259 --> 00:07:39.259
 There's no amount of money that makes you immune.

00:07:42.259 --> 00:07:46.579
 Our passage this morning is in certain ways tragic.

00:07:47.399 --> 00:07:48.779
 And it is about just that.

00:07:48.860 --> 00:07:53.139
 It is about the need for love and worth and identity.

00:07:53.139 --> 00:07:59.360
 Leah has a very hungry heart.

00:08:01.599 --> 00:08:04.000
 And it's not hard to understand why.

00:08:04.079 --> 00:08:09.159
 The very last verse of our passage last week, verse 30, said this.

00:08:09.240 --> 00:08:13.819
 He, that is Jacob, loved Rachel more than Leah.

00:08:13.819 --> 00:08:23.680
 It gets even worse, the beginning of this week's passage, verse 31, when the Lord saw that Leah was hated.

00:08:25.180 --> 00:08:28.199
 So Leah's husband does not love her.

00:08:29.219 --> 00:08:30.860
 And worse than that, he hates her.

00:08:32.039 --> 00:08:38.980
 And on top of that, her father has used her as a pawn.

00:08:38.980 --> 00:08:46.560
 Laban gave her in marriage to a man who didn't love her for his own benefit.

00:08:47.440 --> 00:08:52.279
 Because he wanted seven more years of labor out of Jacob.

00:08:53.320 --> 00:08:58.320
 If we fast forward in Genesis chapter 31, which we'll get to before too long,

00:08:58.580 --> 00:09:02.899
 there's a comment from both Leah and Rachel about what they think of Laban.

00:09:02.899 --> 00:09:03.899
 And they say this.

00:09:03.899 --> 00:09:17.199
 That's a Father's Day card.

00:09:18.559 --> 00:09:26.819
 Dear dad, you have regarded us as foreigners, and you sold us, and you took all our money.

00:09:29.399 --> 00:09:32.139
 Leah's father uses her.

00:09:32.139 --> 00:09:36.379
 Leah's husband hates her.

00:09:37.779 --> 00:09:44.779
 Of course, of course she is desperate for love, hungry for love.

00:09:44.899 --> 00:09:46.139
 She's not beautiful.

00:09:46.360 --> 00:09:47.419
 She wasn't chosen.

00:09:48.120 --> 00:09:49.120
 So what is she going to do?

00:09:51.699 --> 00:09:58.080
 As the old saying goes, you have to play the cards you were dealt.

00:09:58.080 --> 00:10:00.480
 So Leah does.

00:10:00.540 --> 00:10:05.280
 The one thing she knows that she can do, she has kids.

00:10:06.540 --> 00:10:08.000
 That takes us to verse 32.

00:10:08.860 --> 00:10:10.120
 Child number one.

00:10:10.520 --> 00:10:13.639
 And Leah conceived and bore a son, and she called his name Reuben.

00:10:13.860 --> 00:10:22.400
 For she said, because the Lord has looked upon my affliction, for now my husband will love me.

00:10:23.740 --> 00:10:26.379
 Reuben means see a son.

00:10:26.379 --> 00:10:34.700
 So Leah's saying, look, I've given you what Rachel has, and I've given you the thing that is most important and valuable.

00:10:35.120 --> 00:10:40.240
 What you need for God's promises to be honored is for the line to continue.

00:10:42.019 --> 00:10:45.620
 Of course, you will love me now.

00:10:45.620 --> 00:10:49.379
 But he doesn't.

00:10:51.460 --> 00:10:55.840
 So we move on from son number one to son number two.

00:10:56.360 --> 00:10:57.399
 Verse 33.

00:10:58.399 --> 00:11:06.259
 She conceived again and bore a son and said, because the Lord has heard that I am hated, he has given me this son also.

00:11:06.259 --> 00:11:09.360
 And she called his name Simeon.

00:11:11.340 --> 00:11:13.200
 So Leah's still self-absorbed.

00:11:13.799 --> 00:11:17.419
 She's still consumed with her relationship to her husband.

00:11:17.799 --> 00:11:22.759
 Now, she doesn't express a hope that this son will solve things like she did with son number one.

00:11:22.759 --> 00:11:29.220
 She does repeat the fact that her husband hates her.

00:11:30.220 --> 00:11:34.120
 But then the next son, she does express her hope once again.

00:11:34.259 --> 00:11:36.259
 So we're now moving from son two to son three.

00:11:36.360 --> 00:11:36.939
 Verse 34.

00:11:37.679 --> 00:11:44.439
 Now this time my husband will be attached to me because I have borne him three sons.

00:11:44.440 --> 00:11:49.040
 Therefore, his name was called Levi.

00:11:50.440 --> 00:11:51.520
 Did you hear that?

00:11:53.080 --> 00:11:54.260
 This time.

00:11:54.540 --> 00:11:56.220
 This time it will be different.

00:11:57.060 --> 00:12:06.640
 This time Jacob will finally love me because I've given him not one, not two, but three sons.

00:12:07.440 --> 00:12:11.380
 How could I not at this point be on top?

00:12:12.080 --> 00:12:13.480
 Isn't this enough?

00:12:14.440 --> 00:12:18.520
 Will Jacob love me now?

00:12:20.280 --> 00:12:24.760
 Will three sons do the trick?

00:12:26.900 --> 00:12:28.520
 They don't.

00:12:30.940 --> 00:12:32.160
 And if you're honest,

00:12:33.020 --> 00:12:38.380
 you've asked yourself the same question.

00:12:38.379 --> 00:12:46.360
 Am I enough to be loved?

00:12:48.539 --> 00:12:50.139
 Am I interesting enough?

00:12:50.419 --> 00:12:51.620
 Am I impressive enough?

00:12:51.700 --> 00:12:55.620
 Have I had enough peak experiences and done enough interesting adventures?

00:12:55.620 --> 00:12:56.980
 Do I have the right hobbies?

00:12:57.460 --> 00:12:58.960
 Am I attractive enough?

00:12:59.039 --> 00:13:00.399
 Do I look beautiful enough?

00:13:00.480 --> 00:13:01.000
 Young enough?

00:13:01.080 --> 00:13:03.159
 Do I have the right clothes and good style?

00:13:03.620 --> 00:13:05.899
 Is it time to start the Botox?

00:13:06.899 --> 00:13:08.659
 Am I smart enough?

00:13:08.659 --> 00:13:14.039
 Do I have the right SAT scores, good enough grades, the right degrees from the appropriate schools?

00:13:14.039 --> 00:13:16.039
 Am I successful enough?

00:13:16.039 --> 00:13:16.719
 Am I successful enough?

00:13:16.719 --> 00:13:16.719


00:13:16.719 --> 00:13:16.719


00:13:16.719 --> 00:13:16.719


00:13:16.719 --> 00:13:23.459
 Am I athletic a performance at the level that I need for people to finally find me interesting?

00:13:23.460 --> 00:13:28.400
 Do I bring home enough money?

00:13:28.399 --> 00:13:39.480
 No matter what it is, shame comes along and says, no, that's not going to cut it.

00:13:39.480 --> 00:13:45.700
 And so the treadmill never ends.

00:13:47.700 --> 00:13:54.060
 Even if you're the richest man in the world.

00:13:56.700 --> 00:13:58.580
 And that's the problem.

00:13:59.580 --> 00:14:04.279
 The problem for Leah, and it's the problem for us.

00:14:04.279 --> 00:14:11.059
 Your hungry heart will never be full.

00:14:12.600 --> 00:14:25.899
 It will never be satisfied by the people in your life, by the experiences of this world.

00:14:26.559 --> 00:14:32.799
 They will never give you what you want or need.

00:14:34.279 --> 00:14:47.079
 And if you demand that the people around you and the things of this world satisfy you,

00:14:47.799 --> 00:14:52.600
 you will always be disappointed.

00:14:56.600 --> 00:15:01.699
 Remind you of this quote that I've told you many times on page 7 of your worship guide from David Gibson.

00:15:01.700 --> 00:15:09.820
 Listen, in the created world, you can only truly enjoy what you do not worship.

00:15:11.500 --> 00:15:16.980
 If you worship those things, you will end up bitter.

00:15:16.980 --> 00:15:21.980
 And you will turn off your heart eventually.

00:15:25.980 --> 00:15:27.139
 So what do we do?

00:15:29.060 --> 00:15:32.519
 What do we do with our hungry hearts?

00:15:32.519 --> 00:15:38.519
 Thankfully, Leah's story shows us things can end differently.

00:15:39.240 --> 00:15:42.399
 And that's what happens with son number four.

00:15:42.519 --> 00:15:43.519
 This is verse 35.

00:15:43.519 --> 00:16:02.379
 This time.

00:16:02.379 --> 00:16:04.539
 Something's going to be different.

00:16:04.539 --> 00:16:07.360
 There's going to be a change in the pattern.

00:16:07.519 --> 00:16:08.079
 What is it?

00:16:08.719 --> 00:16:10.019
 The change is this.

00:16:10.339 --> 00:16:12.719
 God's name has been mentioned in the past.

00:16:12.879 --> 00:16:16.620
 She mentions the fact that God has seen her in her pain and provided for her.

00:16:16.759 --> 00:16:18.980
 But she's never said what she says here.

00:16:19.399 --> 00:16:22.259
 I will praise the Lord.

00:16:23.360 --> 00:16:25.620
 She had mentioned God.

00:16:25.620 --> 00:16:29.039
 She had not praised God.

00:16:29.240 --> 00:16:35.960
 And for the first time, there's no mention of Jacob and her desire for his love.

00:16:37.539 --> 00:16:38.600
 What happened?

00:16:40.980 --> 00:16:47.120
 As Leah's hope for her husband's love fades,

00:16:49.360 --> 00:16:53.299
 Leah's contentment in God grows.

00:16:53.299 --> 00:17:01.120
 As Leah's hope for her husband's love fades,

00:17:02.339 --> 00:17:08.539
 her satisfaction in God becomes more and more.

00:17:10.059 --> 00:17:13.319
 Over the course of four sons,

00:17:15.339 --> 00:17:18.940
 Leah has changed where she sets her eyes.

00:17:20.639 --> 00:17:22.960
 Over the birth of her four sons,

00:17:22.960 --> 00:17:27.400
 she has decided where her hope actually is.

00:17:29.160 --> 00:17:30.579
 Now, it's not complete.

00:17:31.880 --> 00:17:32.779
 Leah's not perfect.

00:17:33.519 --> 00:17:35.960
 She's going to get into another competition next week.

00:17:36.200 --> 00:17:36.380
 Okay?

00:17:37.539 --> 00:17:39.539
 That's how sanctification works.

00:17:39.660 --> 00:17:42.220
 We are not there until we are in heaven.

00:17:42.400 --> 00:17:44.799
 But Leah is growing.

00:17:44.799 --> 00:17:45.799
 She is growing.

00:17:45.799 --> 00:17:53.240
 She is growing in knowing where her hungry heart is really fed.

00:17:56.240 --> 00:18:00.680
 Leah has to be brought to the end of herself

00:18:00.680 --> 00:18:05.799
 to find that only God satisfies.

00:18:05.799 --> 00:18:09.399
 It's a long journey.

00:18:10.240 --> 00:18:12.559
 It's a painful journey.

00:18:13.159 --> 00:18:15.859
 But God is at work.

00:18:16.859 --> 00:18:18.539
 God has been at work,

00:18:18.919 --> 00:18:20.960
 sun by sun,

00:18:21.740 --> 00:18:24.839
 shaping her and refining her.

00:18:24.839 --> 00:18:30.699
 God has been using Leah's disappointments.

00:18:31.339 --> 00:18:34.199
 He's been using her heartbreak

00:18:34.199 --> 00:18:38.399
 to draw Leah to him.

00:18:38.400 --> 00:18:43.320
 Christian,

00:18:43.840 --> 00:18:47.320
 God is doing the same with you.

00:18:53.840 --> 00:18:56.400
 It's wrong that Leah was treated this way

00:18:56.400 --> 00:18:58.800
 by her husband and her dad.

00:18:58.799 --> 00:19:00.720
 It's actually right.

00:19:00.859 --> 00:19:02.819
 It's good and right for her to desire

00:19:02.819 --> 00:19:04.039
 a healthy marriage,

00:19:04.379 --> 00:19:05.159
 a healthy father.

00:19:05.259 --> 00:19:06.159
 Of course, right?

00:19:06.180 --> 00:19:08.119
 We want our spouse to love us.

00:19:10.039 --> 00:19:12.279
 But what about when it doesn't happen?

00:19:16.059 --> 00:19:18.139
 God uses this injustice,

00:19:18.399 --> 00:19:19.419
 and it is an injustice.

00:19:19.619 --> 00:19:20.700
 Don't hear what I'm not saying.

00:19:21.079 --> 00:19:23.440
 It is wrong that Jacob and Laban

00:19:23.440 --> 00:19:25.759
 have behaved this way.

00:19:26.460 --> 00:19:28.180
 God is using this injustice

00:19:28.180 --> 00:19:32.820
 to place Leah's eyes on him.

00:19:35.820 --> 00:19:38.140
 Remember, we looked at Romans 5,

00:19:38.740 --> 00:19:40.420
 verses 3 through 5.

00:19:41.700 --> 00:19:45.700
 God uses suffering to transform you.

00:19:47.480 --> 00:19:50.480
 God uses suffering to make you

00:19:50.480 --> 00:19:52.480
 look more like Jesus.

00:19:52.960 --> 00:19:55.820
 God uses the disappointments in your life

00:19:55.820 --> 00:19:58.000
 to fix your eyes on him.

00:19:58.180 --> 00:19:59.840
 that you can become like Leah

00:19:59.840 --> 00:20:00.299
 and said,

00:20:00.460 --> 00:20:01.420
 this time,

00:20:01.779 --> 00:20:03.380
 this time it will be different.

00:20:04.039 --> 00:20:06.120
 I won't wallow in my disappointment.

00:20:06.299 --> 00:20:08.039
 I won't be looking for other people

00:20:08.039 --> 00:20:09.600
 to fill the hole in my heart.

00:20:09.700 --> 00:20:10.820
 No, this time,

00:20:10.960 --> 00:20:13.000
 I will praise the Lord.

00:20:16.299 --> 00:20:19.820
 God uses the failures of humans

00:20:19.819 --> 00:20:20.480
 to grow your hope in him.

00:20:20.480 --> 00:20:31.379
 A number of years ago,

00:20:31.379 --> 00:20:35.259
 I met with a Christian counselor,

00:20:35.460 --> 00:20:36.339
 and we were talking about

00:20:36.339 --> 00:20:39.339
 a frustrating person in my life

00:20:39.339 --> 00:20:40.439
 who will remain nameless.

00:20:40.440 --> 00:20:44.480
 And the counselor said this to me.

00:20:44.480 --> 00:20:44.660
 He said,

00:20:44.759 --> 00:20:46.580
 are you ready?

00:20:47.799 --> 00:20:50.559
 Are you ready to give up on this person?

00:20:52.640 --> 00:20:53.700
 Now, it sounds shocking.

00:20:53.799 --> 00:20:54.420
 It doesn't sound like something

00:20:54.420 --> 00:20:56.279
 a Christian counselor should say to you.

00:20:56.720 --> 00:20:58.580
 Depending on what you mean by give up.

00:20:58.660 --> 00:20:59.740
 If by give up,

00:20:59.820 --> 00:21:01.799
 you mean abandoning them.

00:21:01.880 --> 00:21:02.160
 Of course,

00:21:02.220 --> 00:21:03.320
 that's not what we want to do,

00:21:03.319 --> 00:21:05.059
 but he meant something different.

00:21:05.960 --> 00:21:07.099
 What he meant was this.

00:21:07.259 --> 00:21:10.720
 Are you ready to give up your demands?

00:21:11.960 --> 00:21:14.419
 Are you ready to accept this person

00:21:14.419 --> 00:21:15.379
 for who they are?

00:21:15.480 --> 00:21:17.019
 Are you ready to come to terms

00:21:17.019 --> 00:21:19.279
 with the fact that they may never change?

00:21:20.319 --> 00:21:23.259
 Are you ready to look in the face

00:21:23.259 --> 00:21:25.119
 the reality that this person

00:21:25.119 --> 00:21:27.119
 will never be who you need

00:21:27.119 --> 00:21:29.099
 or want them to be?

00:21:30.539 --> 00:21:32.619
 Are you ready to love them

00:21:32.619 --> 00:21:33.659
 right here,

00:21:33.899 --> 00:21:34.819
 right now,

00:21:34.879 --> 00:21:36.659
 if they never change?

00:21:38.259 --> 00:21:41.959
 Are you ready to give up?

00:21:44.239 --> 00:21:45.839
 Are you ready to grieve

00:21:45.839 --> 00:21:49.000
 who you wish they would be

00:21:49.000 --> 00:21:51.259
 but never will?

00:21:55.259 --> 00:21:56.759
 You can only give up

00:21:56.759 --> 00:21:59.339
 if you stop demanding

00:21:59.339 --> 00:22:00.500
 that they give you

00:22:00.500 --> 00:22:04.039
 what only God can give.

00:22:08.720 --> 00:22:10.059
 Are you ready to give up?

00:22:12.460 --> 00:22:13.619
 Are you ready to give up

00:22:13.619 --> 00:22:14.519
 the dream,

00:22:14.660 --> 00:22:15.359
 the illusion

00:22:15.359 --> 00:22:16.579
 that your family,

00:22:16.720 --> 00:22:17.299
 your friends

00:22:17.299 --> 00:22:18.900
 will meet your needs

00:22:18.900 --> 00:22:21.319
 and fill your heart?

00:22:24.319 --> 00:22:25.839
 Are you willing to admit

00:22:25.839 --> 00:22:27.179
 they will never be

00:22:27.179 --> 00:22:28.139
 what you need

00:22:28.139 --> 00:22:29.339
 or want them to be

00:22:29.339 --> 00:22:30.480
 and finally,

00:22:31.000 --> 00:22:33.379
 finally let the Lord

00:22:33.379 --> 00:22:36.519
 be and do those things for you?

00:22:38.179 --> 00:22:39.619
 Are you ready to say

00:22:39.619 --> 00:22:40.199
 with Leah,

00:22:40.439 --> 00:22:41.220
 this time,

00:22:41.759 --> 00:22:44.059
 this time,

00:22:44.179 --> 00:22:46.559
 I will praise the Lord?

00:22:46.559 --> 00:22:54.319
 The psalmist in Psalm 73

00:22:54.319 --> 00:22:55.940
 gives us a little picture

00:22:55.940 --> 00:22:57.059
 of what this looks like.

00:22:57.779 --> 00:22:58.619
 He says this,

00:22:58.779 --> 00:23:00.500
 my flesh and my heart

00:23:00.500 --> 00:23:01.440
 may fail,

00:23:02.399 --> 00:23:04.259
 but God is the strength

00:23:04.259 --> 00:23:05.500
 of my heart

00:23:05.500 --> 00:23:07.099
 and my portion

00:23:07.099 --> 00:23:08.159
 forever.

00:23:09.779 --> 00:23:11.059
 For a moment,

00:23:12.659 --> 00:23:14.619
 Leah lets God

00:23:14.619 --> 00:23:16.299
 be her portion.

00:23:19.339 --> 00:23:21.079
 The psalmist then says this,

00:23:22.119 --> 00:23:22.979
 but for me,

00:23:23.079 --> 00:23:24.159
 it is good

00:23:24.159 --> 00:23:25.939
 to be near God.

00:23:26.559 --> 00:23:28.500
 I have made the Lord God

00:23:28.500 --> 00:23:29.399
 my refuge

00:23:29.399 --> 00:23:30.579
 that I may tell

00:23:30.579 --> 00:23:33.399
 of all your works.

00:23:36.659 --> 00:23:37.819
 That's the secret.

00:23:37.819 --> 00:23:41.960
 the hungry heart

00:23:41.960 --> 00:23:44.359
 will not be quiet.

00:23:46.279 --> 00:23:47.480
 It's got to feed

00:23:47.480 --> 00:23:48.099
 on something.

00:23:51.059 --> 00:23:52.500
 The hungry heart

00:23:52.500 --> 00:23:55.319
 will only be full

00:23:55.319 --> 00:23:57.259
 when it feeds

00:23:57.259 --> 00:23:59.399
 on Jesus Christ.

00:24:01.779 --> 00:24:02.700
 That's what Jesus

00:24:02.700 --> 00:24:03.539
 is talking about

00:24:03.539 --> 00:24:04.859
 in John chapter 7

00:24:04.859 --> 00:24:06.539
 when he says this,

00:24:06.539 --> 00:24:08.039
 on the last day

00:24:08.039 --> 00:24:08.759
 of the feast,

00:24:08.879 --> 00:24:09.859
 the great day,

00:24:10.220 --> 00:24:11.319
 Jesus stood up

00:24:11.319 --> 00:24:12.399
 and cried out,

00:24:12.720 --> 00:24:15.000
 if anyone thirsts,

00:24:15.240 --> 00:24:16.879
 let him come to me

00:24:16.879 --> 00:24:17.819
 and drink.

00:24:19.099 --> 00:24:20.819
 Whoever believes in me

00:24:20.819 --> 00:24:21.720
 as the scripture

00:24:21.720 --> 00:24:22.519
 has said,

00:24:22.960 --> 00:24:23.980
 out of his heart

00:24:23.980 --> 00:24:25.440
 will flow rivers

00:24:25.440 --> 00:24:27.139
 of living water.

00:24:27.140 --> 00:24:27.240
 water.

00:24:30.580 --> 00:24:31.860
 Do you want

00:24:31.860 --> 00:24:33.640
 rivers

00:24:33.640 --> 00:24:35.440
 of living water

00:24:35.440 --> 00:24:36.380
 to flow

00:24:36.380 --> 00:24:37.340
 out of you?

00:24:42.140 --> 00:24:43.280
 It won't come

00:24:43.280 --> 00:24:44.160
 from your spouse.

00:24:46.360 --> 00:24:47.280
 It won't come

00:24:47.280 --> 00:24:47.980
 from your dad

00:24:47.980 --> 00:24:48.640
 or your mom.

00:24:50.320 --> 00:24:52.320
 If anyone thirsts,

00:24:52.480 --> 00:24:53.220
 let him come

00:24:53.220 --> 00:24:54.080
 to me

00:24:54.080 --> 00:24:55.540
 and drink.

00:24:55.539 --> 00:25:01.519
 it looks

00:25:01.519 --> 00:25:02.039
 a little bit

00:25:02.039 --> 00:25:02.680
 like this.

00:25:05.960 --> 00:25:06.899
 I'm not married

00:25:06.899 --> 00:25:07.259
 now

00:25:07.259 --> 00:25:08.159
 and I may

00:25:08.159 --> 00:25:08.700
 never be.

00:25:10.480 --> 00:25:11.299
 And I could

00:25:11.299 --> 00:25:11.920
 choose

00:25:11.920 --> 00:25:13.299
 quiet desperation

00:25:13.299 --> 00:25:14.539
 I could grasp

00:25:14.539 --> 00:25:15.339
 at any chance

00:25:15.339 --> 00:25:16.200
 of a relationship

00:25:16.200 --> 00:25:18.139
 or

00:25:18.139 --> 00:25:20.420
 I can recognize

00:25:20.420 --> 00:25:21.379
 that the greatest

00:25:21.379 --> 00:25:22.559
 love is a love

00:25:22.559 --> 00:25:23.819
 I already have

00:25:23.819 --> 00:25:25.319
 and cannot lose.

00:25:27.759 --> 00:25:28.799
 I can still hope

00:25:28.799 --> 00:25:29.399
 for a spouse,

00:25:29.559 --> 00:25:29.779
 right?

00:25:30.960 --> 00:25:31.819
 But it's not

00:25:31.819 --> 00:25:33.059
 my greatest hope.

00:25:33.519 --> 00:25:34.299
 That is not

00:25:34.299 --> 00:25:35.039
 what my life

00:25:35.039 --> 00:25:35.679
 rises

00:25:35.679 --> 00:25:37.159
 or falls on.

00:25:37.500 --> 00:25:38.240
 Psalm 73

00:25:38.240 --> 00:25:39.039
 can be true

00:25:39.039 --> 00:25:39.519
 for me.

00:25:39.659 --> 00:25:40.799
 God is the strength

00:25:40.799 --> 00:25:41.679
 of my heart

00:25:41.679 --> 00:25:42.980
 and my portion

00:25:42.980 --> 00:25:43.839
 forever.

00:25:43.839 --> 00:25:43.959
 forever.

00:25:46.779 --> 00:25:48.759
 Maybe your husband

00:25:48.759 --> 00:25:53.039
 finds many things

00:25:53.039 --> 00:25:55.000
 more interesting

00:25:55.000 --> 00:25:56.119
 than you.

00:25:58.419 --> 00:26:00.339
 You could run away

00:26:00.339 --> 00:26:01.240
 and you could hide

00:26:01.240 --> 00:26:02.480
 yourself in hobbies

00:26:02.480 --> 00:26:03.720
 or romance novels.

00:26:03.720 --> 00:26:05.559
 that's an option.

00:26:06.759 --> 00:26:07.779
 You could choose

00:26:07.779 --> 00:26:08.140
 bitterness.

00:26:09.720 --> 00:26:10.860
 You could distract

00:26:10.860 --> 00:26:11.339
 yourself.

00:26:13.180 --> 00:26:14.079
 Or you can

00:26:14.079 --> 00:26:14.500
 grieve it.

00:26:16.319 --> 00:26:17.140
 You can say

00:26:17.140 --> 00:26:18.019
 this is a real

00:26:18.019 --> 00:26:18.660
 loss

00:26:18.660 --> 00:26:20.620
 but I will

00:26:20.620 --> 00:26:21.220
 not.

00:26:21.559 --> 00:26:22.420
 I will not

00:26:22.420 --> 00:26:23.160
 shut my heart

00:26:23.160 --> 00:26:23.620
 down

00:26:23.620 --> 00:26:25.700
 but for me

00:26:25.700 --> 00:26:26.299
 it is good

00:26:26.299 --> 00:26:27.339
 to be near God.

00:26:27.720 --> 00:26:28.380
 I have made

00:26:28.380 --> 00:26:29.279
 the Lord God

00:26:29.279 --> 00:26:30.160
 my refuge

00:26:30.160 --> 00:26:31.900
 that I may tell

00:26:31.900 --> 00:26:33.500
 of all your works.

00:26:38.800 --> 00:26:39.920
 Maybe your dad

00:26:39.920 --> 00:26:42.120
 loved your brother

00:26:42.120 --> 00:26:42.980
 more.

00:26:45.019 --> 00:26:45.880
 And you can

00:26:45.880 --> 00:26:46.780
 spend your whole

00:26:46.780 --> 00:26:47.980
 life on overdrive

00:26:47.980 --> 00:26:48.660
 if you want.

00:26:48.740 --> 00:26:49.300
 You can try

00:26:49.300 --> 00:26:50.380
 to prove him wrong.

00:26:51.880 --> 00:26:52.320
 I think that's

00:26:52.320 --> 00:26:52.820
 the path that

00:26:52.820 --> 00:26:53.940
 Elon is going for.

00:26:55.759 --> 00:26:56.700
 Or you can say

00:26:56.700 --> 00:26:57.180
 this I'm going

00:26:57.180 --> 00:26:57.720
 to grieve it.

00:26:59.600 --> 00:27:00.660
 That's a real

00:27:00.660 --> 00:27:01.360
 loss.

00:27:02.900 --> 00:27:03.820
 And I have

00:27:03.820 --> 00:27:04.920
 a greater love.

00:27:05.060 --> 00:27:06.000
 I have the love

00:27:06.000 --> 00:27:07.019
 of my heavenly

00:27:07.019 --> 00:27:08.019
 father.

00:27:08.960 --> 00:27:09.480
 And so you can

00:27:09.480 --> 00:27:10.060
 say with the

00:27:10.060 --> 00:27:10.440
 psalmist

00:27:10.440 --> 00:27:11.160
 God is the

00:27:11.160 --> 00:27:12.060
 strength of

00:27:12.060 --> 00:27:12.960
 my heart

00:27:12.960 --> 00:27:14.519
 and my portion

00:27:14.519 --> 00:27:15.640
 forever.

00:27:21.259 --> 00:27:21.980
 When you

00:27:21.980 --> 00:27:22.519
 give up.

00:27:23.420 --> 00:27:24.080
 When you

00:27:24.080 --> 00:27:25.019
 stop demanding

00:27:25.019 --> 00:27:25.560
 that other

00:27:25.560 --> 00:27:26.380
 people do

00:27:26.380 --> 00:27:27.240
 what only

00:27:27.240 --> 00:27:28.200
 God can do

00:27:28.200 --> 00:27:29.300
 you will find

00:27:29.300 --> 00:27:30.680
 real freedom

00:27:30.680 --> 00:27:31.380
 and real joy.

00:27:31.380 --> 00:27:33.600
 because you

00:27:33.600 --> 00:27:34.200
 can love

00:27:34.200 --> 00:27:35.500
 them truly

00:27:35.500 --> 00:27:36.140
 really

00:27:36.140 --> 00:27:37.440
 for the

00:27:37.440 --> 00:27:38.560
 first time.

00:27:39.900 --> 00:27:40.540
 You're able

00:27:40.540 --> 00:27:41.300
 to take risks.

00:27:41.440 --> 00:27:41.800
 You can be

00:27:41.800 --> 00:27:42.240
 vulnerable

00:27:42.240 --> 00:27:42.700
 and have

00:27:42.700 --> 00:27:43.080
 intimacy

00:27:43.080 --> 00:27:43.960
 because God

00:27:43.960 --> 00:27:44.580
 will be

00:27:44.580 --> 00:27:45.120
 there

00:27:45.120 --> 00:27:46.240
 if it all

00:27:46.240 --> 00:27:46.880
 falls apart.

00:27:48.380 --> 00:27:49.460
 You know

00:27:49.460 --> 00:27:51.140
 that he's

00:27:51.140 --> 00:27:51.780
 the strength

00:27:51.780 --> 00:27:52.680
 of your heart

00:27:52.680 --> 00:27:53.440
 and your

00:27:53.440 --> 00:27:54.020
 portion

00:27:54.020 --> 00:27:55.300
 forever.

00:27:55.299 --> 00:27:55.379
 forever.

00:27:57.579 --> 00:27:58.359
 I want you

00:27:58.359 --> 00:27:58.759
 to look with

00:27:58.759 --> 00:27:59.259
 me on the

00:27:59.259 --> 00:28:00.319
 back of your

00:28:00.319 --> 00:28:01.159
 worship guide

00:28:01.159 --> 00:28:03.619
 which talks

00:28:03.619 --> 00:28:04.119
 with us about

00:28:04.119 --> 00:28:04.839
 what it is

00:28:04.839 --> 00:28:05.339
 that Jesus

00:28:05.339 --> 00:28:06.279
 does for us

00:28:06.279 --> 00:28:07.099
 that gives us

00:28:07.099 --> 00:28:08.259
 this freedom.

00:28:08.259 --> 00:28:10.700
 we won't need

00:28:10.700 --> 00:28:11.680
 to be recognized

00:28:11.680 --> 00:28:12.720
 by others

00:28:12.720 --> 00:28:13.879
 if we know

00:28:13.879 --> 00:28:15.140
 we are seen

00:28:15.140 --> 00:28:16.099
 and known

00:28:16.099 --> 00:28:17.519
 and deeply

00:28:17.519 --> 00:28:19.000
 loved by the

00:28:19.000 --> 00:28:20.160
 king of all

00:28:20.160 --> 00:28:21.059
 the universe

00:28:21.059 --> 00:28:22.220
 himself.

00:28:23.220 --> 00:28:24.319
 We can

00:28:24.319 --> 00:28:25.200
 unclench our

00:28:25.200 --> 00:28:25.960
 grip on

00:28:25.960 --> 00:28:26.799
 status

00:28:26.799 --> 00:28:28.579
 if we know

00:28:28.579 --> 00:28:29.420
 we're held

00:28:29.420 --> 00:28:30.680
 in Jesus'

00:28:31.220 --> 00:28:31.680
 hands.

00:28:31.680 --> 00:28:33.580
 we can

00:28:33.580 --> 00:28:34.400
 kneel down

00:28:34.400 --> 00:28:36.019
 if we are

00:28:36.019 --> 00:28:36.560
 sure

00:28:36.560 --> 00:28:37.400
 he will

00:28:37.400 --> 00:28:38.279
 one day

00:28:38.279 --> 00:28:39.799
 lift us

00:28:39.799 --> 00:28:40.799
 up.

00:28:43.560 --> 00:28:44.400
 Christian

00:28:44.400 --> 00:28:44.820
 that is

00:28:44.820 --> 00:28:45.420
 your hope.

00:28:46.620 --> 00:28:47.259
 That is

00:28:47.259 --> 00:28:48.140
 what allows

00:28:48.140 --> 00:28:48.820
 you to

00:28:48.820 --> 00:28:49.640
 unclench

00:28:49.640 --> 00:28:50.560
 your grasp

00:28:50.560 --> 00:28:51.220
 and give

00:28:51.220 --> 00:28:51.620
 up

00:28:51.620 --> 00:28:54.380
 asking

00:28:54.380 --> 00:28:55.060
 that others

00:28:55.060 --> 00:28:55.660
 do what

00:28:55.660 --> 00:28:56.860
 only God

00:28:56.860 --> 00:28:57.880
 can do.

00:28:59.340 --> 00:29:00.279
 By the

00:29:00.279 --> 00:29:00.600
 way

00:29:00.599 --> 00:29:04.000
 we see

00:29:04.000 --> 00:29:04.559
 that very

00:29:04.559 --> 00:29:04.959
 thing

00:29:04.959 --> 00:29:05.339
 in this

00:29:05.339 --> 00:29:05.799
 passage.

00:29:07.319 --> 00:29:08.059
 Jacob

00:29:08.059 --> 00:29:09.719
 has eyes

00:29:09.719 --> 00:29:10.519
 only

00:29:10.519 --> 00:29:11.039
 for

00:29:11.039 --> 00:29:11.619
 Rachel

00:29:11.619 --> 00:29:15.699
 but

00:29:15.699 --> 00:29:16.019
 Leah

00:29:16.019 --> 00:29:16.639
 is not

00:29:16.639 --> 00:29:17.399
 unseen.

00:29:19.279 --> 00:29:20.019
 Verse

00:29:20.019 --> 00:29:20.619
 31

00:29:20.619 --> 00:29:22.619
 very

00:29:22.619 --> 00:29:23.019
 beginning

00:29:23.019 --> 00:29:23.419
 of this

00:29:23.419 --> 00:29:23.899
 passage

00:29:23.899 --> 00:29:25.619
 when the

00:29:25.619 --> 00:29:26.039
 Lord

00:29:26.039 --> 00:29:27.339
 saw

00:29:27.339 --> 00:29:28.519
 that

00:29:28.519 --> 00:29:28.939
 Leah

00:29:28.939 --> 00:29:29.819
 was

00:29:29.819 --> 00:29:30.179
 hated.

00:29:30.599 --> 00:29:34.299
 Jacob

00:29:34.299 --> 00:29:35.439
 does not

00:29:35.439 --> 00:29:36.179
 see

00:29:36.179 --> 00:29:37.219
 Leah.

00:29:39.059 --> 00:29:40.159
 God

00:29:40.159 --> 00:29:41.279
 has seen

00:29:41.279 --> 00:29:42.000
 Leah

00:29:42.000 --> 00:29:43.019
 from the

00:29:43.019 --> 00:29:43.559
 very

00:29:43.559 --> 00:29:44.859
 beginning.

00:29:48.000 --> 00:29:48.879
 In

00:29:48.879 --> 00:29:49.439
 Christ

00:29:49.439 --> 00:29:51.519
 God

00:29:51.519 --> 00:29:52.299
 sees

00:29:52.299 --> 00:29:52.980
 you

00:29:52.980 --> 00:29:57.759
 and

00:29:57.759 --> 00:29:58.279
 nothing

00:29:58.279 --> 00:29:59.500
 else

00:29:59.500 --> 00:30:00.819
 matters.

00:30:03.819 --> 00:30:04.860
 Hast

00:30:04.860 --> 00:30:05.099
 thou

00:30:05.099 --> 00:30:05.579
 heard

00:30:05.579 --> 00:30:05.960
 him

00:30:05.960 --> 00:30:06.620
 seen

00:30:06.620 --> 00:30:07.120
 him

00:30:07.120 --> 00:30:08.039
 known

00:30:08.039 --> 00:30:08.500
 him

00:30:08.500 --> 00:30:11.120
 is

00:30:11.120 --> 00:30:11.599
 not

00:30:11.599 --> 00:30:12.279
 thine

00:30:12.279 --> 00:30:12.599
 a

00:30:12.599 --> 00:30:13.380
 captured

00:30:13.380 --> 00:30:13.960
 heart

00:30:13.960 --> 00:30:15.960
 chief

00:30:15.960 --> 00:30:16.420
 among

00:30:16.420 --> 00:30:16.839
 ten

00:30:16.839 --> 00:30:17.360
 thousand

00:30:17.360 --> 00:30:18.000
 own

00:30:18.000 --> 00:30:18.440
 him

00:30:18.440 --> 00:30:19.799
 joyful

00:30:19.799 --> 00:30:20.680
 choose

00:30:20.680 --> 00:30:21.339
 the

00:30:21.339 --> 00:30:21.759
 better

00:30:21.759 --> 00:30:22.640
 part

00:30:22.640 --> 00:30:25.319
 captivated

00:30:25.319 --> 00:30:26.000
 by his

00:30:26.000 --> 00:30:26.660
 beauty

00:30:26.660 --> 00:30:28.379
 worthy

00:30:28.379 --> 00:30:29.279
 tribute

00:30:29.279 --> 00:30:30.379
 haste

00:30:30.379 --> 00:30:30.879
 to bring

00:30:30.879 --> 00:30:32.519
 let

00:30:32.519 --> 00:30:32.859
 his

00:30:32.859 --> 00:30:33.559
 peerless

00:30:33.559 --> 00:30:34.160
 worth

00:30:34.160 --> 00:30:35.720
 constrain

00:30:35.720 --> 00:30:36.660
 thee

00:30:36.660 --> 00:30:38.240
 crown

00:30:38.240 --> 00:30:38.700
 him

00:30:38.700 --> 00:30:39.539
 now

00:30:39.539 --> 00:30:41.240
 unrivaled

00:30:41.240 --> 00:30:42.819
 king

00:30:42.819 --> 00:30:46.399
 let's

00:30:46.399 --> 00:30:46.659
 pray.

00:30:48.519 --> 00:30:49.119
 Our

00:30:49.119 --> 00:30:49.419
 father

00:30:49.419 --> 00:30:49.659
 in

00:30:49.659 --> 00:30:49.859
 heaven

00:30:49.859 --> 00:30:50.519
 we do

00:30:50.519 --> 00:30:51.339
 praise

00:30:51.339 --> 00:30:51.579
 you
