Whenever your children are out of control, you can take comfort from
the thought that even God's omnipotence did not extend to His own
children.
After creating heaven and earth, God created Adam and Eve. The first
thing he said was, "Don't."
"Don't what?" Adam replied.
"Don't eat the forbidden fruit," God said.
"Forbidden fruit? We have forbidden fruit? Hey, Eve...we have
forbidden fruit!"
"No way!"
"Yes, way!"
"Do NOT eat the fruit!" said God.
"Why?"
"Because I am your Father and I said so!" God replied, wondering why
he stopped creation after making the elephants.
A few minutes later, God saw his children having an apple break and he
was ticked! "Didn't I tell you not to eat the fruit?" God, as our
first parent, asked.
"Uh huh," Adam replied.
"Then why did you?" said the Father.
"I don't know," said Eve.
"She started it!" Adam said.
"Did not!"
"Did too!"
"DID NOT!"
Having had it with the two of them, God's punishment was that Adam and
Eve should have children of their own.
Thus, the pattern was set and it has never changed! But there is
reassurance in this story. If you have persistently and lovingly tried
to give children wisdom and they haven't taken it, don't be hard on
yourself. If God had trouble raising children, what made you think it
would be a piece of cake for you?
