Reading: Genesis 3:1-13; Romans 5:12-21

Devotional: God's first question after humanity's fall echoes through eternity: "Who told you?" In the garden, shame replaced intimacy. Adam and Eve believed the lie that they were now unworthy of God's presence. Like Mephibosheth, crippled by a fall not of his own making, we too bear the wounds of humanity's brokenness. Yet Romans reveals the beautiful truth: where sin increased, grace abounded all the more. The Fall introduced death, but Christ introduced life.

Today, reflect on what voices have convinced you that you're disqualified from God's love. Remember, just as Adam's sin affected all humanity, Christ's righteousness offers restoration to all who believe. You are not defined by the Fall—you are defined by the One who caught you.
