Adam, after he had
been thrown out of the Garden of Eden, stood facing the thorns and thistles. With
pain, he glanced back at what was once his abode and as he walked towards the
wild heritage that he had inherited, he never, even once asked God, ‘Why this,
Lord?’ He knew his sin, precisely.

11, 2001 and November 26, 2008 is a grim reminder of God’s judgment of their un-repented
sins and our refusal to stand between God and them, pleading with Him for mercy
and forgiveness.
