Does the fruit of your life come from a garden or a grocery store?

“Now the LORD God had planted a garden in the east, in Eden; and there he put the man he had formed.” Gen.2
Many people have never worked a garden, and our culture suffers grievously because of it. We were made not only to live in a garden but to garden as a way of life. I am not speaking primarily of a physical, but spiritual garden-though working the former teaches something of the latter. If ever a skill needed to be re-introduced into a society, gardening is it. Some things must be patiently grown. You can’t shop for character in a grocery store. Conversations Within” ts 4/3/2013 (Jax,FL)
