I am convinced there is nothing like a good Bible story just before bedtime to help you get off to sleep, so do read this one and see if it helps.
How Adam Ended Up With Eve
Adam was hanging around the garden of Eden on his own, feeling very downhearted and sad. God called to him from out of the mist and asked him, ‘Adam, what’s wrong with you?’
Adam replied, “Heavenly Father I am sad and bored, sure I don’t have anyone with whom to have a decent conversation.”
God thought for a moment and then informed Adam that He was going to make him a companion and “She will be called woman.” he announced. “Woman will be pretty,” He stated. “She will gather food for you and she will cook for you. When you both discover clothing, she will wash them for you. She will always agree with every decision you make and she will never nag you. She will always be the first to admit she is wrong when you’ve had a disagreement. She will praise you. She will bear your children and never ask you to get up in the middle of the night to take care of them. She will never have a headache and will freely give you love and passion whenever you need it.”
Adam, (Not the sort of man to buy a pig in a poke, you understand,) now asked God, “So what will a woman like this cost me?” God replied “Probably an arm and a leg.”
Thinking now very quickly Adam asked, “What would I get for just one rib?”
Well as we all now know – the rest is history….!
I was asleep in 5 mins.
A women’s lib speaker was addressing a large group and said, “Where would man be today if it were not for woman?”
She paused a moment and looked around the room. “I repeat, where would man be today if it were not for woman?”
From the back of the room came a voice, “He’d be in the Garden of Eden, eating strawberries.”
What did God say after creating Adam? “I must be able to do better than that.”
What did God say after creating Eve?” Practice make perfect.”
Adam to Eve: “I’ll wear the plants in this family!“
