“The man said, “The woman you put here with me—she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it.””
Genesis 3:12 NIV
Our human nature is to blame, blame, blame. See how quickly Adam blamed Eve and Eve blamed the serpent??
We do not want to accept guilt of our sin. It's easier and less painful to blame someone else.
We all testified this morning to times in our lives when we have blamed others and times when we "owned our own crap". ( ya that's how we said it!!).
We all agreed that it's much better to just own it because if you play the blame game eventually there is even more mess to clean up.
We pray to embrace humility and to quickly acknowledge our wrong. To forgive quickly, apologize quickly and love unconditionally. ( one of our family creeds).
