I know many of us get flustered with Eve and blame her for why the world is a fallen place today, but if you look at the bigger picture you would see that many of us have similar tendencies as Eve. We stumble and make mistakes, then put the blame on the serpent (Enemy). To make matters worse we isolate ourselves from the one who placed us on this earth. We isolate because of the guilt, shame etc that we brought to ourselves. Similar to how Eve tried to cover her shame in garments is the same way we try to hide behind isolation. The one we try to hide from is God but in reality we know this is impossible because the holy spirit abides within us. In other words, trying to hide from God is basically trying to hide from a guilty conscious, its impossible. It is said like this "Don't make permanent decisions off temporary feelings" Eve made a permanent decision off a temporary feeling, she left the covering of God's truth and fell into the trap of deception. Many of us fall into the same trap and believe the lies of the enemy which result in the path of destruction.
The good news behind this is that God's grace is sufficient enough to take you out of that place of isolation, he did it for me he can do it for you too. We must remember even after God has taken us from our fallen place we have to love that person we used to be, if it was not for that person you would not be able to experience just how much love God has for you. The same way God loved you through all your impetuous mistakes is the same way he loves you when you make the decision to accept him as your savior. His love for you is impeccable.
