The Story: Where Are You?

 The Story: Where Are You? by ric gustafson

Before Adam and Eve ate the fruit, they were comfortable free of sin and their fellowship with God was open. God had given them a beautiful garden home and was meeting all of their needs. Why would they want anything else?. 

Then the serpent came. He told them they could be like God. They could be independent. All they had to do was eat the fruit. They ate. Their eyes became open. They were naked. They made coverings of fig leaves. God called to Adam. " Where are you?".

God called out to Adam " Where are you?". Adam began to explain. Adam blamed Eve. Eve blamed the serpent. Even though Adam and Eve embraced sin rather than God, God did not turn his back on them.
