"Adam" © Amy Beth Augustin Barlow 2004

Out of the dust - mere nothingness - God created man. He named the first man Adam. I have an Adam too. And ironically, he just seemed to appear one day...as if out of nothing. I was more than content being single and wasn't looking for someone. Honestly, I was actually opposed to such a thing. And then Adam. A friend encouraged me to check out a new church and there I met a quiet fellow who loved to drive. He happened to live by me. I hate to drive. So when all things summed up, our group of young adults assigned Adam the task of getting me to whatever event happened to be going on. Adam drove me here, there and everywhere. I couldn't help but to fall in love with the man that I was sitting beside. His kindness had me... I could do nothing less than love this man. Adam. (Genesis 2:7)
