Parent Hell !HO!

I think one of the hardest parts of raising children is watching them make really stupid choices, sometime that we made ourselves, and nothing we say will change their mind. They sometimes even use us as a "good reason". Arggggg!

But then the perfect parent, God, in the perfect home, Eden, who had done all the right things, he warned them, and they still made really stupid choices (I heard James Dobson say that and after I finished being flabbergasted, I found it oddly comforting). Adam even blamed God for it.

I wonder how God must have felt at that moment, knowing He had to let them choose for themselves, knowing the consequences they would reap. Maybe that's how WE get a glimpse of the heart of God, the Pain of God.

I wonder how he felt watching us while we were in the COG. He knew Berg was a drunken mega-maniacal pervert. I was so sure I was right and this was God's elite. I so wanted to be one. Is that a bit gnostic? He sure had some sneaky ways of getting us out of the COG, often against our will. Thank you Father.
