God was the First Gardener

Everywhere you look: In books, in television, in magazines, people are living as though God doesn't exist. God does exist. Without Him our gardens would not exist. Many want to find God in nature. He is there but also transcends his own creation. He is the creator off all things and is above all things. Nothing came into existence without him. He is there in your garden but He is also everywhere at the same time. I remember I heard from a Christian scientist that God is as close to us as we are to others and yet at the same time He is also seated far away in the heavenlies. Space does not limit God so then why should we deny God in our lives just because the world does.

Did you know that God was the first gardener? "Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden" Genesis 2:8. Even though God is above all things, He also likes gardening. He planted seed, and caused it to grow. He sent the rain, and watered his garden. Since God is the author of gardening than He could certainly help us in our gardening wisdom.

Gardening is a God-like pursuit. Something is wrong if you don't like planting and growing. There is more to life than watching TV or hearing music or eating pizza. There is nothing like fresh vegetables that are steamed cooked and ready to be served.

Please help us God in our gardening. Give us your wisdom and direct our ways. In Jesus name, AMEN.
