Transformation 16
couldn't have. She failed to count her
blessings and within her an evil desire
to be like God took over. The solution,
according to the serpent, lay in eating
the forbidden fruit. She must have been
one woman who did not know what to
do with the kind of information she got
at that time and despite having a close
relationship with God and her husband,
she never consulted any of them. I
guess she wanted to surprise them but
whatever her reasons, she acted
independently and out of her own free
will.
When the woman saw that
the fruit of the tree was
good for food and pleasing
to the eye, and also
desirable for gaining
wisdom, she took some and
ate it. She also gave some to
her husband, who was with
her, and he ate it, then the
eyes of both of them were
opened, and they realised
they were naked; so they
sewed fig leaves together
and made coverings for
themselves (Genesis 3:6-7).
There are several key lessons
we can learn from Eve. Just
like any other woman out
there, she had her own
shortcomings, weaknesses and
strengths. But at the end of
it all, we realize that God is
always merciful and has great
plans for each one of us.
So God created mankind
in his own image, in the
image of God he created
them. God blessed them
and said to them, “ Be
fruitful and increase in
number; fill the earth and
subdue it. Rule over the
fish in the sea and the
birds in the sky and over
every living creature that
moves on the ground
(Genesis 1:27-28).
First and foremost, we learn
from the above scripture that in
Gods image and likeness, a
woman, just like a man, was
and is created. It does not
matter where you come from>>
