Lisa’s D’rash: Do You Think He Doesn’t Know?

Torah passage: Genesis 2:20-3:21.

As I was reading the passages for this week, I was reminded that the Bible is all one story. The story of the Messiah. The Lamb of G-d, who takes away the sins of the world, and whose death brought us life. In this morning’s Torah reading, we read about how sin entered the world, and we also read that the answer, the redemption that we so desperately needed, G-d already had a plan for that.

He didn’t just come up with a plan after the fruit was eaten, He was ready with the solution before sin entered the world. And that got me to thinking about other situations. I might be caught by surprise, but He never is. There isn’t one thing that has ever happened in my life that He didn’t know was going to happen. He has already prepared solutions.

I just need to trust Him.

Shabbat Shalom.
