God has taught me things through that garden, and i think that He is not done yet.<BR/><BR/>after i read this article, i was thinking about how man was evicted from the garden of eden, where i suppose all the food needed was supplied, and was forced to live outside of the garden and have to find food and eventually grow food. to toil and work and learn.<BR/><BR/>everything has it's own pace and time in a garden, and there is a lot of work for the food that is produced.<BR/><BR/>once i was on my knees weeding between the rows. i was a bit upset that i was not getting help in the weeding department. and at that moment God spoke to me...He said, "nancy, you weed the garden. you can tenderly and lovingly care for the garden so that it can grow. for that is what i do for you".<BR/><BR/>i know i posted about this when it happened, but, i thought i would mention it again, because this post reminded me of it so much.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
