The ground's curse due to sin affects our thought processes, making it challenging to think clearly. This is especially true for caregivers dealing with high-stress situations, where their thinking is already encumbered by sin.

The devil operates by deception, seeking to undermine the work of God. He can take many forms, including pretending to be an angel of light.
