Christian Women and Politics


Christian Women and Politics


Once Again I wrote about Christian Women and Politics,          I created this article in accordance with the understanding and experiences that I got during the last five years of my life in a political party ... I write this for all of you the young Christian women who want to be a politician like me...The real political world is not the world that "terrible" and full of "falsehoods" and "mutual bite", the political world is the world of work and good service too if we enjoy it in a healthy manner and the fear of God ...One of the figures who inspired me that I will describe today is Leah, yyuuppp ... after two previous figures namely Sarah and Rebekah who have played politics as a "Worth Helper" This time I saw Leah from different side.In the history of Israel's power of ancestral Father,Jacob, Leah played a political role that is quite strategic, based on the stories of history that I get in the Bible, I found indications that Leah was the "key person" in a variety strategies of Jacob.
 When Jacob have achieved a big economic power, and then had to flee from his father in law, Laban, and have to deal with his old enemy who was his brother too,Esau. Jacob is a man who is very tough and very familiar with strategies "to survive and seize" to got a power.In Genesis 32: 8 Jacob bit "unpacking" his mind about strategy, usually people who are considered "vital" will receive the most stringent protection, based on that statement I conclude the Genesis 33: 2-3 as an indication that Leah is "an important person" for Jacob.

Why Leah is more important and she is believed by Jacob as "key person" in a variety of political strategy and the power of Jacob? Why not Rachel? I found indication in the stories later in the Book of Genesis, it seems Leah is a person who is more powerful and mature on physical and emotional, Leah even closer to God. Leah also be physically healthier and more intelligent, it is seen from her ability to give birth to more children, then Leah live longer with Jacob, Leah faced more conflicts of "power" in the history of Jacob and his children, beside that Leah always placed "in between" in the division of the group, and a final fact that only Leah was the one who was buried along with Jacob in Makhpela and not Rachel.The key people are very vital role in the political movement, we need to have the people to trust in the work of politics, because in politics "interest" is everything, Being a "key person" is not easy, it takes so extraordinary physical and mental powers.Remember! Women have these advantages, why? women are multi-tasking, most women bear with suffering, women are able to survive longer though without the men and women has a high level of "emotional intelligence" has the ability to remain positive despite even the surrounding situation was so chaotic. Mentoring a smart and powerful woman in politics is needed, women worked with great detail and women was a good helper.End of the story of Jacob is the formation of the twelve tribes of Israel and the history of David and Solomon tremendous power in the earth, Judah, the tribe deserves to be blessed by God to hold the political power of Israel, great kings born from this tribe, all those things not just happened without a preparation and a smart work by Leah.Leah choosing God as her helper, Lea chose to live with God and Leah chose to stay positive and focus on her role as a "key person" of Jacob her husband and a draft of the preparation of a great nation and not a struggle for too shallow love conflict,So ... if we realize we're in the loop of "key", play the role intelligently and fear of the Jesus Christ our Lord and God, have a great vision for the future and lay hold of that power with a good ways, remember ... if it is provided for us..it will be for us...!!!

That's all story I write today,I hope its will a good things for all of you...

Cheers,

Lea
