Numerical Expositions: Genesis 4:9

And the Lord said unto Cain, Where is Abel thy brother?  And he said, I know not:  Am I my brother's keeper?

- Gen. 4:9 (KJV)

Even after Cain murders Abel, God in his mercy asks Cain where is Abel so that Cain would have a chance to repent of his actions.  However, Cain showed no remorse by not caring about his brother by choosing to be selfish.  No matter what you have done in the past, do not be dumb like Cain by not confessing your faults to God.  God is merciful.  If He was not merciful, then we would all be dead now.

Numerical Breakdown:  (4) To gain instruction, listen to the voice of the Lord when He decides to speak to you.  (9) To overturn evil, be concerned about the welfare of others.
