Eve...

So the other day i was snuggled up by the fire place all nice and warm in the middle of caribou doing my devotional. it was just like any other day, i thought. but during my devotional my mind was radically changed.

I was reading in genesis, where Eve eats from the tree. my entire life i have always thought, stupid eve, why would you do that? you ruined it for all of us. (wow, now that i am typying this out it makes me think how could i think that an not take the blame myself, but i really did think that)well as i was reading through the passage, it dawned on my that i am eve.

How often do we sin, knowing that God does not want us to, but we do not let that stop us! i know i do! i make the same choice that eve made everyday. and it makes me so mad, because i dont want to be that way. God deserves more!

This also makes me realize more and more how speechless i am when i think of God's grace. we do not deserve his grace at all, but he still gives it to us. He holds and tell us that everything will be ok because the price has already been paid. it is a beautiful message.

So today, as i am sitting at carbiou (i am ok with my addiction. ha) i just look around knowing that God is bigger, he knows me better than i know myself, and he still chooses to love me, and nothing will change that. overall it is a message of hope because no matter how imperfect i am, God still loves me, always!
