Willfulness - Part 1

As Adam and Eve stood before the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, all was still right within God’s creation. But as each stretched out their hand and touched the fruit, gone in that very instant was humanity’s unencumbered relationship with the Father. While His love continued to flow, no longer was the flow uninhibited. Adam and Eve’s sin instantly began to clog the conduit through which the Father’s love traveled, namely, their spirit. In that instant, the security of His plan was gone. A dark willfulness, unlike anything they had ever experienced, permeated their minds and immediately affected their relationship with one another. From the instant Adam and Eve violated the Father’s will, their integrity began to erode.
