Pray this Lazaroo with growing understanding:

“To Adam he said, ‘Because you listened to your wife and ate fruit from the tree about which I commanded you, “You must not eat from it,” Cursed is the ground because of you; through painful toil you will eat food from it all the days of your life.’”
(Genesis 3:17)

You told Abraham to listen to his wife, Jesus.

So that’s not what got Adam cursed.

It was when he listened to his wife

instead of You.

Pray this Lazaroo with pedal-to-the-metal commitment:

“Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?”
(Genesis 3:11)

Yes, I have, Jesus.

God help me!
Yes, I have.

As Adam did when You asked him this question

I’m tempted to explain why I did it.

But I’m not going to bother.

You’d recognize it for what it is:
An embarrassingly weak excuse.

I know what happened to Adam and Eve.

Please help me change!
Don’t kick me out of the garden.
