There choice effected us all!

Our lives are full of choices and on a daily basis we make thousands of choices. Our choices invoke different emotions as well as consequences.

The first choice that was made on this earth was by our earthly parents: Adam and Eve. They chose to partake of the fruit from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. They made this decision so that they could gain knowledge and fulfill Gods commandment to have children. After Adam and Eve had partaken of the fruit they were cast out of the Garden of Eden.

Adam and Eve understood the importance of following the commandments and the necessity of partaking of the fruit from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. It was for our benefit; so we could come to earth, feel the joys from the pains and to know the good from the evil. Because they understood the blessings that came from their decision, we must also understand the great blessings that we have enjoyed and will enjoy resulting from their decision to partake of the fruit.

The reason that I bring this up is the fact that I believe Adam and Eve were the perfect example of the sacrifices that we make to be able to become children. They made the choice to eat the fruit and were cast out of The Garden of Eden because of that choice, but their joy though was multiplied through their posterity. They understood the eternal ramifications of their decision and ever since, we have continued to multiply and replenish the earth. We have an innate earthly desire to have children and that desire is part of our natural make up.
