Genesis 3:8

"Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the Lord God as he was walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from the Lord God among the trees of the garden."  Genesis 3:8

It's interesting to note that the word "sound" is translate in the Qbible as "call" or "voice."  So now after giving in to temptation, only to see that it wasn't all it was made out to be, the first man and woman hear God in the garden.  So what do they do?  They hide. 

They should have known, you can't hide from God.  They could have gone to him and admitted their sin, but they didn't.  Maybe they just reacted in a moment of panic.  Maybe they just weren't willing yet to face the full consequences of their actions.  Maybe they just didn't want to face God's disappointment in them.  Either way, that's what they did - they hide.

Even today we still do the same thing.  We sin, knowingly or not, and once it's done, we try to hide from it and from God.  It's hard to admit when you've done something wrong.  Most of us would rather ignore it and pretend it never happened, but we can't.  At some point we will have to deal with it, whether that's in this life or the next.
