In This Garden There is One
In This Garden There is One, It is 4am on Thursday morning as I write my thoughts down, I awoke earlier and went right to the news to see what was happening here in this country called America, after a day of unrest and protest. (video and a poem by Daryl Madden below)
What I heard above all else was people blaming others for the behavior of a few. But my thoughts went directly to, it is not one person’s fault for what transpired on this day or any other day. “He who is without sin, let them cast the first stone”.
I then turned the news off and continued to word press to view your comments on my post from the day before. I was talking about the noise that surrounds us. Two comments stuck out in my mind, they mentioned how lucky I was to be in a place surrounded by nature. I thought for a moment, is it luck?
I turned off the computer and listened, in the silence is when I hear the unspoken words that touch my heart. I opened the computer back up and went directly to the Word; Samuel 8-15. It read; The people insisted that Samuel give them a king. Samuel asked the Father what to do. The Father said; “Hearken unto the voice of the people in all that they say unto thee: for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them, wherewith they have forsaken me, and served other gods,”.
Let me tell you a quick story, this story started 50 years ago for me from this very location where I am at today. I was very young and had just learned about God when my Grandfather passed away. Because of the circumstances, I had to leave this place and begin a new journey at a very young age.
Throughout these many years, I have hit many lows, I have felt rejection and pain repeatedly over the years. But, over the course of this journey, I never forgot about God, I remembered Him and the most important thing that I can say right now, is that He remembered me. Even though He has been rejected by man, I called on Him in my time of need and He answered. After all the years of being alone and knowing rejection over and over from people. The one place I never, ever was rejected, was when I was speaking to the Father.
So, is it really luck or was it a path set before me?
Yesterday I was reading a post from; Aussiebirder and at the bottom of his post he had written these words. I know these words but they came to me again this morning; Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
What is the purpose of my story you might ask; I believe when you walk in the flesh instead of the spirit, there will be noise and unrest among worldly beliefs. I do not put my faith in worldly things, governments etc. I, myself hold faith in only One, He who created life.
I am not a religion. This is my life, my thoughts and if my story helps one person to know one thing; it doesn’t matter where the flesh is, but be in search of the Garden of Eden, it is not a place, it is where your heart is.
In this Garden you have one Father – One Tree of Life, where you are surrounded by nature. Sometimes you have to go back to where you came from to get to where you are going like a child. Head East back to the garden of trees, the Laws of Your Nature. That is where my heart resides.
A Poem by; Daryl Madden, he wrote a poem yesterday from my post and I added his beautiful words to my video. Thank you.
