5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW

1-How could Eve's sin of disobedience affect her yet to be born children?

2-Where in a newborn's body is a sinful nature?

3-The Bible says that when Adam sinned, sin entered the world.  Why not when Eve first ate the forbidden fruit?

SCRIPTURE FOR THE DAY     Psalm 40:1-2

40 I waited patiently for the Lord.
    He turned to me and heard my cry.
² He lifted me out of the pit of destruction,
    Out of the sticky mud.
He stood me on a rock
    And made my feet steady.

 

PRAYER FOR THE DAY   

 

 

Father, the pit is a horrible place, but may your comforting presence and all sufficient grace transform this season with a bit of sweetness.  Being in the pit may not be painless or quick.  But with your help, and by your grace, I know you will get me through.  Amen.

 

SMILE, LAUGH, FORGIVE, BELIEVE AND LOVE, OVER AND OVER AGAIN-
