Genesis and the Husband

The husband looked upon the earth and saw there was much to do.
He asked, How am I to till the ground and remove the rocks, I am but a lone man?

I will give thee a machine to help with the work. The husband was well pleased and gave thanks. He tilled and worked the earth, but the rocks continued to torment him. He was grieved and asked, How am I to pick up the rocks and drive the machine at the same time?


I will give thee a woman, a helpmeet to work along side you. Again the husband was pleased and gave thanks.


Although the woman, the helpmeet was happy to work along side the husband, she had never drove such a fine machine. This concerned the husband as he picked up rocks, he was in great fear of his life as he did not want to get run over by the machine. Again he asked, no, he begged for mercy and cried unto Him,
The woman whom thou gavest me, to work along side me is a danger. What am I to do, how am I to finish the work?

I will send Heavenly Angels to watch over you and to protect you in times of trouble.

The husband not only gave thanks but offered a sacrifice as a gift of his gratitude. He offered to give back the woman, his helpmeet when the work is done.

The husband looked over his his field as saw that it was good. He said, this comes as a great sacrifice unto me, but I am ready to give back the helpmeet, the woman thou gavest me. His offering was denied, and the husband rejoiced with much gladness......

Well sort of......

Verily, verily I say unto you, the woman, whom I gavest thou, shall continue to be thy helpmeet all the days of thy life. Thou shalt never fear, for I will give her great driving skills and many talents which shall help thee work the earth. Amen

Love it! I am actually surprised he let the woman on the machine! You know men and their toys. If it were my husband I would have been picking up rocks! You two crack me up!

LOL, oh gracious that was awesome.
The man that was given to me always asketh me to help him. After a while, he asketh me to go away.
