The Power Problem

You know power is a stange thing. I think I am only starting to figure out the human desire for power. For example you look at Genesis Chapter 2. You got Adam and Eve in the Gaden of Eden, they've been given everything they could ever need, but that wasn't enough. No they wanted to be like God, they wanted the power. So many people have told me that the original sin was lust or lack of obedience but a disagree. I really believe that the original sin was pride and the desire to be in charge. let's start at the beginning.
You have the serpent who is the adversary. Then their is the Tree of knowledge of good and evil. The serpent says that the tree will give them the power to judge what is good and what is evil, so that they can be like God. The eating of the fruit, symbolizes the making of a covenant will the serpent. The story continues with the consequences of these actions. Eve is told that she will desire her husband and that he will ruel over her. The ultimate battle of the sexes right? But this was not God's plan, God created them equals, Adam himself said she is like me (bone of my bone and flesh of my flesh), but God says that because they both took the fruit desiring to be powerfull they will both continue to desire to rule over each other.
Now what am I getting at? well it is about figuring out how to live a life of WORSHIP. Knowing the backround to why you sometimes to silly or stupid things is important. But what is even more important is to realise that it is not the human condition to be power hungry individuals, no that is not what we were created to be. God then made them clothing out of animal skin, this is the first blood sacrifice, the first time that we hear about an animal dying for the sake of God's children.
In a world where we all want to be in control, and we all want to hold power even if it is just a little, we need to remember that this desire is what started it all, it's what seperated us from God in the first place.
SO WHO HAS THE POWER IN YOUR LIFE???
