April 29 ... Come To The Garden Place

Seek the Lord and His strength,

see His face and yearn to be

in His presence continually.

I Chronicles 16:11

Oh, how great and marvelous

are His plans for us!

As we wake with Him in the garden,

as we overcome the weakness of our flesh,

to watch with Him in prayer,

persevering in obedience to His desire

of walking and talking with us

in the garden.

Oh, how great and mysterious

is His love for us!

As He meets with us in the garden,

as we commune with Him,

basking in His presence,

looking on His face

in the garden.

Oh, how great and wondrous

is His grace toward us!

As He calls us to the garden,

as we call upon His Name,

knowing our unworthiness,

seeing His mercy,

weeping as we know Him

in the garden.
