It's Not My Fault


Genesis 3

11 And he said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?" 12 The man said, “The woman you put here with me —she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it.” 13 Then the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?” The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”

It’s Not My Fault

So whose fault is it when your life spins out of control?  Who is really to blame for what happens to you?  Is it just random stuff, or could it have been avoided?  Adam and Eve blamed each other. 
 It is said that where ever you are in life, your best thinking got you there.  It is convenient, and even comforting to blame life, and other people for your mistakes.  But here’s the truth.  You made the decisions that got you either in a wonderful, successful life, or a struggle to stay alive.  You made the decision about college, you made the decision to spend the money that way, to live at the maximum extreme of your income, you made the decision to date that person, you made the decision to take that advice.  Nobody but you!

It is the truth that makes you free.  Start taking 100 percent responsibility for your actions and you will find yourself being more careful.  Acknowledge God in all your ways and He will direct your path.  His word is our counsel and contains our roadmap.  Follow the Word to victory!
