[GENESIS 29:35]<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI really didn\u2019t like Mother\u2019s Day,\u201d said Donna, a mom of three. \u201cIt brought back to me all the inadequacies and failures I felt and feel as a mother. Being a mother was really the hardest thing I ever did,\u201d she said. And one particular child \u201cpushed every button I had.\u201d When God chose Leah to be a matriarch of Israel, no doubt she had high expectations for each of her children. She gave her first four sons names with relevance to her difficult situation (GENESIS 29:32-35). Yet when it comes to dark stories in the Bible, these sons have starring roles as the bad guys. Some were guilty as murderers (34:24-30) and slavers (37:17-28). Leah\u2019s son Judah is the villain in one of the uglier accounts in Scripture (Genesis 38). How like God to bring the Messiah through Leah\u2019s descendants-including Judah. In the most difficult circumstances and through the most unexpected people, God works out redemption. Donna learned this too. As she faced all her parenting challenges, she never found an answer \u201cexcept to keep going and keep praying.\u201d And that kid who pushed all her buttons? He\u2019s grown now, and he loves and respects his mom. Looking back, Donna says, \u201cPerhaps he was sent to me to teach me something about myself and something about my God.\u201d TIM GUSTAFSON, Our Daily Bread.<\/p>\n<p>\ub0b4\uac00 \uc774\uc81c\ub294 \uc5ec\ud638\uc640\ub97c \ucc2c\uc1a1\ud558\ub9ac\ub85c\ub2e4 \ud558\uace0 \uc774\ub85c \ub9d0\ubbf8\uc554\uc544 (\ub808\uc544\uac00) \uadf8\uc758 \uc774\ub984\uc744 \uc720\ub2e4\ub77c \ud558\uc600\uace0 (\ucc3d\uc138\uae30 29:35)<\/p>\n<p>\uc138 \uc544\uc774\uc758 \uc5c4\ub9c8\uc778 \ub3c4\ub098\uac00 \ub9d0\ud588\uc2b5\ub2c8\ub2e4. &#8220;\uc800\ub294 \uc5b4\uba38\ub2c8 \ub0a0\uc774 \uc815\ub9d0 \uc2eb\uc5c8\uc5b4\uc694. \uadf8\ub0a0\uc740 \ud55c \uc5c4\ub9c8\ub85c\uc11c \ub290\uaf08\ub358, \uadf8\ub9ac\uace0 \uc9c0\uae08\ub3c4 \ub290\ub07c\uace0 \uc788\ub294 \ubaa8\ub4e0 \ubd80\uc871\ud568\uacfc \uc798\ubabb\ub4e4\uc744 \ub5a0\uc62c\ub824 \uc8fc\uc5c8\uae30 \ub54c\ubb38\uc774\uc5d0\uc694. \uc5c4\ub9c8\uac00 \ub418\ub294 \uac83\uc740 \uc9c0\uae08\uaecf \ub0b4\uac00 \ud55c \uc77c \uc911 \uac00\uc7a5 \ud798\ub4e0 \uc77c\uc774\uc5c8\uc5b4\uc694. \uadf8\ub9ac\uace0 \uae4c\ub2e4\ub85c\uc6b4 \uc544\uc774 \ud558\ub098\uac00 \ub098\ub97c \ub9e4\ubc88 \uc9dc\uc99d\ub098\uac8c \ud588\uc5b4\uc694.&#8221; \ud558\ub098\ub2d8\uc774 \ub808\uc544\ub97c \uc774\uc2a4\ub77c\uc5d8\uc758 \uc5ec\uc790\ub4e4 \uc18d\uc5d0\uc11c \uac00\uc7a5\uc73c\ub85c \uc120\ud0dd\ud558\uc168\uc744 \ub54c, \ub808\uc544\ub294 \ubd84\uba85\ud788 \uc790\ub140 \ud55c \uba85 \ud55c \uba85\uc5d0\uac8c \ud070 \uae30\ub300\ub97c \uac00\uc84c\uc744 \uac83\uc785\ub2c8\ub2e4. \ub808\uc544\ub294 \uccab \ub124 \uc544\ub4e4\uc5d0\uac8c \uc790\uc2e0\uc758 \ud798\ub4e0 \uc0c1\ud669\uacfc \uad00\ub828\ub41c \uc774\ub984\uc744 \uc9c0\uc5b4\uc8fc\uc5c8\uc2b5\ub2c8\ub2e4(\ucc3d\uc138\uae30 29:32-35). \ud558\uc9c0\ub9cc \uc131\uacbd \uc18d\uc5d0\uc11c \uadf8 \uc544\ub4e4\ub4e4\uc740 \ub098\uc05c \uc790\ub4e4\ub85c \ub4f1\uc7a5\ud569\ub2c8\ub2e4. \uc0b4\uc778\ud55c \uc790(34:24-30)\ub3c4 \uc788\uc5c8\uace0 \ub178\uc608\ub9e4\ub9e4\ub97c \ud55c \uc790(37:17-28)\ub3c4 \uc788\uc5c8\uc2b5\ub2c8\ub2e4. \ub808\uc544\uc758 \uc544\ub4e4 \uc720\ub2e4\ub294 \uc131\uacbd\uc758 \ub354 \ucd94\uc545\ud55c \uc774\uc57c\uae30 \uc911 \ud558\ub098\uc778 \uc545\ud55c \uc0ac\ub78c\uc73c\ub85c \ub098\uc635\ub2c8\ub2e4(38\uc7a5). \uc5b4\ub5bb\uac8c \ud558\ub098\ub2d8\uc740 \uc720\ub2e4\uac00 \ud3ec\ud568\ub418\uc5b4 \uc788\ub294 \ub808\uc544\uc758 \uc790\uc190 \uc911\uc5d0\uc11c \uba54\uc2dc\uc544\uac00 \ub098\uac8c \ud558\uc168\uc744\uae4c\uc694? \ud558\ub098\ub2d8\uc740 \uac00\uc7a5 \uc5b4\ub824\uc6b4 \uc0c1\ud669, \uac00\uc7a5 \uc608\uc0c1\uce58 \ubabb\ud55c \uc0ac\ub78c\ub4e4\uc744 \ud1b5\ud574 \uad6c\uc6d0\uc744 \uc774\ub8e8\uc2ed\ub2c8\ub2e4. \ub3c4\ub098\ub294 \uc544\uc774\ub4e4\uc744 \uc591\uc721\ud558\uba74\uc11c \ubb38\uc81c\uc5d0 \ubd80\ub52a\ud790 \ub54c\ub9c8\ub2e4 &#8220;\uacc4\uc18d \ub178\ub825\ud558\uace0 \uae30\ub3c4\ud558\ub294 \uac83 \uc678\uc5d0\ub294&#8221; \uc5b4\ub5a4 \ub2f5\ub3c4 \ucc3e\uc9c0 \ubabb\ud588\uc2b5\ub2c8\ub2e4. \uadf8\ub9ac\uace0 \ub3c4\ub098\ub97c \uac00\uc7a5 \uc9dc\uc99d\ub098\uac8c \ud588\ub358 \uadf8 \uc544\uc774\ub294 \uc774\uc81c \uc790\ub77c\uc11c \uc5c4\ub9c8\ub97c \uc0ac\ub791\ud558\uace0 \uc874\uacbd\ud569\ub2c8\ub2e4. \ub3c4\ub098\ub294 \ub3cc\uc774\ucf1c\ubcf4\uba70, \u201c\uc544\ub9c8\ub3c4 \uadf8 \uc544\uc774\ub294 \ub098\uc640 \ud558\ub098\ub2d8\uc5d0 \uad00\ud574 \ubb34\uc5b8\uac00\ub97c \uac00\ub974\uccd0 \uc8fc\ub824\uace0 \ud558\ub098\ub2d8\uc774 \ub098\uc5d0\uac8c \ubcf4\ub0b4\uc2e0 \uac83 \uac19\uc544\uc694\u201d\ub77c\uace0 \ub9d0\ud569\ub2c8\ub2e4. \ud300 \uad6c\uc2a4\ud0c0\ud3f0, \uc624\ub298\uc758 \uc591\uc2dd \uc911\uc5d0\uc11c.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cThis time I will praise the Lord.\u201d So (Leah) named him Judah.
