A Higher Joy
Did Eve and Adam make the Right Choice?
Eve often gets bad rap for being the first one to partake of the fruit in the Garden of Eden, but have you ever thought it was one of the most wise, courageous choices she could have ever made. I know and believe that she was called to partake of it and Adams supporting decision to partake of the fruit made it possible for all of us to be here today. Without both of their choices we would not be here. This teaches me that without Eve families would never be eternal and without Adam families would not be eternal. It took BOTH of them to partake of the fruit. This principle alone teaches us about the importance of a husband and a wife, (marriage) we can't do it alone. One point I do talk about is, is we don't know how soon after Adam partook of the fruit once Eve partook of the fruit. It could have been minuets or it could have been years, but learning to be patient with our spouse as we grow together is so important.
