God marked Cain for protection after Cain killed his brother Abel. The mark on Cain is a sign of a cursed spirit, yet at the same time a symbol of God’s mercy, an assurance for us that wherever we have been, whatever we have become, God still loves us, God still longs for us.

There were these 2 brothers who asked their parents, “Why can’t we live in that beautiful garden with all kinds of animals and fruit-bearing trees?”.
