1) If you could define, in one word, what the couple experienced, what would that word be, and why? How do we in our own experience today sometimes face the same thing?3:21

In one word they experienced dysfunction. They based their actions toward
God and toward one another on their own desires rather than God's desires.
The result of their choices was the first dysfunctional relationship.

Because they were misaligned with God this made them misaligned with each
other. We must seek to base our choices upon accurate information an not
what we think or feel. When we do not do so then we are heading for
a situation of dysfunction.

Today we must seek to please God in the choices that we make otherwise
we will be terribly disappointed with the results. We will feel guilty
and try to point the blame when things don't work out but its because
we refuse to honor God in our choices.

2) What other emotion did they experience that they had not known before? Again, in what ways do we experience the same thing, and why?

They experienced shame. They realized that they were naked and they
had never felt that before. After Adam and Eve disobeyed they realized
what they did they ran from God because of their shame. We do the
same thing when we disobey God we run in shame thinking He does
not know and that He wont understand.

How open are you to accepting responsibility for your wrong choices? Or do you always find ways to blame others for it? If so, when are you going to stop?

We must learn to take responsibility for our actions. The best time
to do so is always today.

Prayer: Father we have made wrong choices, we have done things that we should have not done. Please help us to be responsible for the choices that we have made and not blame someone or something else. Father thank your for your forgiveness. In Jesus name amen.
