SO GOOD QUOTES

The sun did not set before God initiated the reconciliation process in the same day, as we read in Genesis 3:8: “In the cool of the day.” When Adam sinned, he hid from the presence of God, but before the sun went down, God was looking for him: “The Lord God called to Adam and said to him, ‘Where are you?” (Genesis 3:9).

Note that the reconciliation process takes time.

Nevertheless, our Lord started on the same day that Adam sinned. He did not wait, being upset with him, or avoid him for a month or so and then begin to look for him. He looked for Adam on that very day, “in the cool of the day,” before the sun went down.
