The LORD God planted a garden toward the east, in Eden; and there He placed the man who He had formed. Genesis 2:8 NASB The boys had a day off school today, so I got to stay home. Which meant I got to go out and dig a considerable number of weeds out of my “garden.” Which meant I had plenty of time to think. Every time I plunged that garden fork into the weeds, I found myself thinking, “Thanks a LOT, Adam! If you had listened to God instead of your wife, my garden wouldn’t be in this mess and I wouldn’t be out here trying to fix it!” Humph! Except that I know, only too well, that I am prone to the same thing. Listening to the wife, sometimes in preference to God, in the interests of “marital harmony.” Wimp! That was what got us into trouble in the first place. That’s why I’m out here, digging weeds, so I can finally learn this lesson (again).
