One year bible day 2

Today I've read about the first sin. What I like about this story of Adam and Eve is, that we humans always blame another for our problems. We never take responsibility for our own actions. Although other people hurt us, we can choose wisely to give all of our pain to God. Jesus has allready died for our mistakes. So you don't have to suffer. It sounds to easy...i know, but this is something you have to practise. I'm in training too. It's like brain fitness. I can tell you, you will feel relieved. You have to learn to trust in God. It's not easy, if you've been hurt to much. But it's okay...it really is. This is your heavenly Father, who created heavens, earth and you. Everything is possible in the hands of God. Let your fears go, give them to Jesus. Don't worry, feel free and feel the joy God puts in your heart. Don't be scared, just do it :).

For today I've read Genesis part 3 and 4. These are some parts I like:

The trouble with sin

The man answered, “I was naked, and when I heard you walking through the garden, I was frightened and hid!” “How did you know you were naked?” God asked. “Did you eat any fruit from that tree in the middle of the garden?” “It was the woman you put here with me,” the man said. “She gave me some of the fruit, and I ate it.”The Lord God then asked the woman, “What have you done?” “The snake tricked me,” she answered. “And I ate some of that fruit.”

Cain murders Abel

What's wrong with you? Why do you have such an angry look on your face? If you had done the right thing, you would be smiling. But you did the wrong thing, and now sin is waiting to attack you like a lion. Sin wants to destroy you, but don't let it!

I love what the Good News version says: "sin is crouching at your door. It wants to rule you, but you must overcome it."

Thanks for this post!
