Gardening is a very popular activity ,every year we have the Chelsea flower show,is a major event.The Queen is one of the first to see this major event,
it is open for anyone to go,many thousands do visit,it is also shown on the TV.Well just recently my wife and I visited a lovely garden centre,with some lovely gardens,as I admired the lovely flowers,and noticed a bee,and I thought ,this is bee heaven. Bee heaven, and this got me thinking about that place where the rose's never die,here they last but for a season soon their beauty is decayed, I am going to a city where the rose's never fade.So
goes the old gospel hymn,and of course it is not to be taken literally,but it is
making a point between ,the realms of time and the eternal realms.This world where not only roses die,we all die,there is a saying old soldiers never
die,they just fade away.But it is not true, all of us die,but not all of us will be going to that wonderful place called heaven,where no one dies.It was Milton who wrote Paradise lost,yes as to this world paradise is lost,someone said that since we were expelled from heaven, we have been trying to create
a paradise on earth. The fact of the matter ,it is the impossible dream,we are
building on toxic waste,in which we will all suffer the consequence of sin.
A prayer.
Dear God open our eyes from the change and decay we view all around us,to that greater faith vision,that You have prepared for all who trust Jesus as their Saviour.in Jesus name. Amen.
