Eve

EVE

Eve is a warning example 
for women of today.?To never disobey God,
to do things … our own way.

Over whelming desire to take
what belonged not to her
Danger dwell on wrong desires,
got her well … you know where.

Like Eve we all have our free will,
our choice ours to make.
Pray we women today smarter,
never make … Eve’s mistake.

I think Eve gets a hard press at times. No-one gives her credit for sharing and women in my life have always been selfless sharers.. but your point is well made Barbara :)

Now Christopher, come on ... inviting to share disobedience, turned out bad for human race. Rom. 5:10 does not blame Eve, say... Through one MAN .... Blame correctly placed. Agree?
