Adam and Eve just committed the first sin ever. They purposefully disobeyed a direct command from God. Not a command sent down on a tablet through a mediator, but a command straight from the Big Guy himself!
(Side note: Sometimes we think it would be easier if God would just talk to us in an audible voice, but would it really?)
But despite this direct disobedience God still came to commune with His creation, and Adam still heard the sound of God...(insert awestruck moment here). Adam sinned, God sought him out, and Adam heard God...and so can I.
Sin is direct disobedience to God's commands, but I still do it. Fortunately we have an all powerful God (see Genesis 1-2) who sees these bad choices we make and still looks to commune with us. It is up to us then to hear God and answer when He calls.
God, thank you so much for loving me and still wanting to spend time with me even though I've made, and continue to make, bad choices.
I was wondering about a time when you you heard God. What was it like?
Also, what did God say to you as you read Genesis 3?
