Photo of a Garden in Palestine
Though this picture was taken in the early twentieth century, it illustrates a timeless principle: a watered and tended garden soothes the soul. The original terrestrial paradise was a garden where God talked with Adam face to face. Jesus himself sought contact with his Father in the Garden of Gethsemane. The eternal dwelling place of humans with God will be a city with trees in its midst.
Gen 2:8, Song 4:12–15, John 18:1, Rev 22:2
