Did God Know?






Did God know that Adam and Eve
Would tell him to take a hike?
The Christian sed~~ Sure.
He could have made them different.~~

And didn't.
He was tired of the endless
Yessssing of the angels.
The incredible whitness of wings,
Goldness of horns and haloes,
The sticky sweetness of praise.
Bored, indeed.
Looking for a little lightliness,
in search of something a little
interesting.
Widen the scope:
To have an occasion to laugh,
To be charmed,
To weep

And, as usual, succeeded

I don't know that God was necessarily tired with being surrounded by Yes men (or Angels) In fact, one can make a good arguement that the Angels dissent prior to the creation of earth. God made freewill because it's part of his perfection. I don't understand why or how or any of the details, but I do know that if you choose to follow the Lord, that he will take care of you even when you make the wrong decisions. This isn't authorization to committ sin, but rather the beauty of his grace.
