Beauty from Within by Faith Murithi Faith Murithi

Sarah was the only woman in the Bible God changed her name.

Eve was the first woman created with no sin. Eve had an advantage no other woman has ever had. She was pure and holy, with the divine image unimpaired until the day sin created discord. The battle of the sexes began. Both husband and wife would now seek the upper hand in marriage. The man who was to lovingly care for and nurture his wife would now seek to rule over her, and the wife would desire to take control from her husband. From the beginning, God’s focus has been love and respect between husband and wife. Though sin has tainted the original beauty of this relationship, God commands believers in Christ to pursue this ideal relationship between husband and wife, an ideal perfectly illustrated in Christ’s relationship with the Church.

There are many life lessons we can learn from Eve’s life but I would like to highlight only seven.
