My Garden


"The LORD God planted a garden toward the east, in Eden..." Genesis 2:8

Our garden is abounding with the beauty of nature. We lovingly named this garden our "Garden of Eden." It supply's our table with abundance and our hearts with joy. Let me encourage you to find a peaceful setting, surrounded by the beauty of creation, give thought to what life must have been like in the Garden of Eden. Think about what your life would be like if you experienced peace in all your relationships, if you never suffered physical or emotional pain, if you were never confused or ashamed or guilty, if you always experienced God's love and friendship. Let your imagination run as it fills in the details of God's original intention for your life. Then consider this: You were made for Paradise. The joys you taste now is so small compared to those that await you in Heaven.
