Generations

Hello everyone, I just want to share with you some lyrics of a song that I am currently listening to. It is almost 23:00 (11pm) here in Deutschland and I am preparing studies for the Gemeindefreizeit (church retreat). I am listening to Sara Groves and she has a song called Generations. Every time I listen to this song, I am extremely blessed and challenged. If you have not heard of Sara Groves, I would definitely encourage you to look her up and buy all that she has. Trust me, you will be blessed! So I want to share with you the lyrics...

I can taste the fruit of Eve. I'm aware
of sickness death and disease. The results
of her choices were vast. Eve was the first
but she wasn't the last. If I were honest
with myself, had I been standing at that
tree, my mouth and my hands would be covered
with fruit. Things I shouldn't know
and things I shouldn't see

Remind me of this with every decision.
Generations will reap what I sow. I
can pass on a curse or a blessing
to those I will never know.

She taught us to fear the serpent. I'm
learning to fear myself and all of the
things I am capable of in my search for
acceptance, wisdom and wealth. To say
the devil made me do it is a cop-out
and a lie. The devil can't make me do
anything when I'm calling on Jesus Christ

To my great-great-great-granddaughter,
live in peace. To my great-great-great-grandson,
live in peace. To my great-great-great granddaughter,
live in peace. To my great-great-great-grandson,
live in peace, live in peace.

Eve was the first but she wasn't the last.
