Mrs. Know-it All
Since the beginning of times we have craved answers....so much that we have placed "knowing" over LIVING. Look at Eden. Two trees...the Tree of Life and the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. Woman and man desired the ability of "knowing" so much that they were willing to give up life itself. It blows my mind. " 16 The Lord God commanded the man, saying, “From any tree of the garden you may eat freely; 17 but from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not [ n ] eat, for in the day that you eat from it you will surely die.”- Genesis 2:16-17 Still today I fight this same war in my own life. Through Salvation in Jesus i have LIFE...the ultimate gift of living and beyond that, eternal life. However, i find myself clinging to the fruit of the OTHER tree. The forbidden tree. I live daily in despair and fear desiring to just "KNOW". I want answers. I want to know the pain that crouches in wait for me. I want to know WHY things ...
