Garden of Goodness





In the beginning "God created", such wonderful words to begin with.

Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

     Have you ever really looked at what He has created seriously? Have you really enjoyed what He created? While I deliver the mail I get the advantage to see all He has created from the land to the animals.  I don't have a route that goes near the lake but I have been on a few that have when I was a sub.

     Anyways I was eating my lunch the other day when I popped a wedge of orange in my mouth.  Talk about the sweet goodness I was eating.  I just had to give Him the praise and awe of that juicy orange.  Here are other things He created for us to eat.

 
This is just a sample platter of His creation!

Genesis 1:11-13  Then God said "Let the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds." And it was so. The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good. And there was eveing and there was morning--the third day.

This is what I think His garden looked like when He created it.


     Mine does not look that good and I will be honest I don't have a green thumb and if I do try to grow something, my timing is off too. So I wish I could grow things but I will leave it for those who God gave the talent of growing to.  So, He had to put a care taker in His gardern to take care of it, so this is what He did.

Genesis 2:15-16 The LORD God took the mand and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it. And the LORD God commanded the man, "You are free to eat from any tree in the garden;

Remember when you eat something fresh and delicious give God all the praise for it.

Thank you LORD for your bountiful goodness!
