Second Step - a short story

Second Step (Fiction 101 Series)

It seems reasonable Adam had to learn how to walk. The Father held his outstretched hands while taking his first steps in the Garden. I wonder if it took him years to learn or only a day like a lamb. I wonder if he taught the same to Eve. If they walked hand in hand on a warm afternoon. If it was years or just a day before they both stumbled and fell.

Whether it took years or a day, their Father gave them the ability to do all these things. It is up to us to take the second step.
