The Tree of Good and Evil

Let us not take what is good before it is ripe to take it and in doing so turn what God has made into sin before us.

And the greatest lie is that we should take what we already have, for in Christ we have all things. All things are found in Christ.

"You will not surely die, the serpent said to the woman, "for God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God knowing good and evil.
When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom she took some and ate it."

Genesis 3:4-7

By grace we fell and by grace redeemed who can say now that God is a God of anger. There is no excuse as God has made his love evident from the beginning and especially now in Christ

The lord bless the readers and keepers of the word.

East of Everywhere

A correspondence:

J - (I've) Come up to meet you, Tell you I'm sorry, You don't know how lovely you are

G - I had to find you, Tell you I need you, Tell you I set you apart.

J - Tell me your secrets and ask me your questions

G - Oh, let's go back to the start

J -(I'm) running in circles, coming up tails, heads on a science apart.

G-No body said it was easy.

J -Its such a shame for us to part

G -No body said it was easy

J -No one said it would be this hard, oh take me back to the start

J -I was just guessing at numbers and figures, pulling the puzzles apart. Questions of science, science and progress do not speak as loud as my heart.

G -But tell me you love me.

J -Come back and haunt me.

G -Oh, and i rush to the start.

J -Running in circle,  chasing our tails, coming back as we are.

G -No body said it was easy.

J -No one ever said it would be so hard. I'm going back to the start!

because some times God speaks most clearly where we don't think he's speaking.
