You look at IT,

as IT is looking at you.

And you have a CHOICE.

YES or NO.

The CHOICE to eat the apple or not to eat the apple.

You hear GOD'S soft whisper,

reminding you that

you are NOT to eat the apple,

yet what you see before you is so

DESIRABLE that you start to question

what GOD said.

Did I really hear GOD right?

Did GOD mean THIS apple?

HE couldn't have meant THIS apple,

because it is so beautiful.

The VOICE of QUESTIONING

that was birthed in the garden,

from the crafty serpent hanging on the tree~

"DID GOD REALLY SAY.....?"

(Genesis 3:1).

The SEED OF DOUBT PLANTED

DID GOD REALLY SAY...?

All you need is a question mark,

to birth the seed of DOUBT,

into your mind,

and before you know it

you have apple juice dripping from your mouth.

Have you been there?

Are you there right now?

THE CHOICE TO CHOOSE,

takes only a SECOND,

to determine what the next SECOND will bring.

Did GOD REALLY SAY

to FORGIVE your enemies?

But then the SEED OF DOUBT is birthed,

as your mind is questioning,

"But doesn't GOD know what they did?" .

BUT GOD DOES KNOW,

for that is why HE

INVITES ALL to FORGIVE,

because HE knows first hand what

HIS enemies did

to HIS SON,

who was on the CROSS

that birthed

FORGIVENESS.

For GOD did FORGIVE Adam and Eve,

for HE did clothe them

and allowed them to live.

And why?

For GOD SO LOVES THE WORLD

that HE wants no one to PERISH,

even HIS first creations who

ate the SEED of DOUBT.

From the apple to the CROSS.

IT IS FINISHED.

Because JESUS DID SAY,

“FATHER forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing”

(Luke 23:24).

JESUS hanging on a tree,

finishing what

the little serpent started

hanging on a tree.

JESUS speaking TRUTH.

The serpent speaking

DOUBT.

You look at IT,

as IT is looking at you.

And you have a CHOICE.

YES or NO.

The CHOICE to eat the apple or not to eat the apple.

Is there an apple before you

that is birthing DOUBT in your mind,

that is slowly tempting

eat the fruit of

Bitterness,

Anxiety,

Worry,

Fear,

and ____________?

Look at the CROSS.

It is EMPTY.

IT IS FINISHED.

For the FRUIT OF FORGIVENESS

was birthed on the CROSS

and it is FREE

in every SECOND,

to right every wrong,

to set you FREE.

TICK. TICK. TICK.

Drop the APPLE and

"LOOK TO JESUS"

(listen to the song below)
