Genesis 3:12-13 NASB
The man said, “The woman whom You gave to be with me, she gave me some of the fruit of the tree, and I ate.” 13 Then the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this that you have done?” And the woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”

●If they are offended with you, it is difficult to receive from you.
●Blameshifting is a convenient crutch of the uncommitted.

●I cannot want it more than you do!
●I cannot care more about your life than you do!
