Today's Favorite Verse: Job 35:11
"Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wiser than the fowls of heaven?"

My mind went to the verses in the story of Adam and Eve, that I have recently been pondering on.

"And the Lord God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it."
(Genesis 2:15)

"And they heard the voice of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God amongst the trees of the garden.
Unto Adam also and to his wife did the Lord God make coats of skins, and clothed them."
(Genesis 3:8, 21)

I have often sat and wondered on all that God taught Adam and Eve while they walked in the garden. You cannot have someone dress and keep a garden if you don't show them how. Adam and Eve must have learned to garden, and make clothes by God himself instructing them. I will never know all that they learned while in the garden, but their source had to be directly from God. Once they left the garden they no longer walked with God. Instead they received instruction through his spirit. Those strokes of ideas that come to man, making him see new possibilities. Man might think they thought of such things themselves, but it was not them. It was the spirit that gives inspiration. When the time is right man will receive new ideas that build upon the knowledge already given. Even those that know not God will receive impressions through the light of Christ given to all men. The difference is what they will use that knowledge for.
