Our Almighty God above told Adam and Eve to not pick the fruit from the tree of knowledge. When being lured into and doing so, Adam and Eve learned the holiest lesson that are consequences for the choices that we make. God didn’t take back his gift of choice and free will. He made consequences! May we not take away the very first original gift our God Almighty gave to us mankind, but pray every person and couple worldwide will use their God given free will and choice to honor life when they are given that holiest gift from Our Almighty God and Creator! If they can not then may Our Almighty creator give the consequences He sees fit. May those of us who are without sin be the first to cast the stones…
