In the Creator's Garden Again

.
Life has always been about choosing
   to obey or not to obey our own Creator.
He made us and He can do whatever
   He wants with us. We don't get a say.
Since the beginning, all He has asked
   us is to follow Him, or go our own way?

We're living the Creator's Garden again,
   In Jesus we either believe, or we do not?

God planted every seed there, hoping
   each would bloom full as He intended;
Roses red, Susans yellow, Hostas blue,
   Daisies white, Veronicas purple, all on a
Bed of green and scant space between,
   bees buzzing for honey heaven scent.
Sadly, not every seed sprouts to flower,
   some choked by weed and sharp thorn,
Others eaten by slugs and nasty bugs,
   and too many dry in the heat of the sun.

You have to wonder if God ever wonders
   if it's all worth the effort year in and out.
The truth is it's not just about scattering
   seed, but being in love with all hope the
Next season will be a better one with even
   more flowers blooming full with love for
      Him.
