The Sacred Garden of God
(Dedicated to Carol and To All Women)
By
Wendy Jennifer Gabriella Schuljan
There is a sacred garden within our heart.
God has planted many seeds of love there.
It is up to us to cultivate this garden with tenderness and care.
We were created to spread seeds of Christian hope and dignity.
The secret to a meaningful life is quite easy...
To make a difference in a world hungry for food, shelter and love,
To reach out to a child needing hope from above,
God's love is abundant and so should we be.
Nothing beautiful grows in a garden of greed!
The garden has many flowers...
We have a choice in what ones to grow.
Stinkweeds and hemlock have no place there.
But roses give off the sweet scent of love everywhere.
There are daffodils and lilacs, too.
But the greatest plants are vegetables and fruits.
The peach tree is sweet like a happy face.
The lemon tree is bitter but with a positive attitude can be quite good.
God has given us free will.
We should plant His love in solid ground.
Behold the splendor!
The harvests of pumpkins and spice permeate the air.
The garden has many flowers...
We should never plant despair.
The greatest garden is the one Christ planted in us.
Faith the size of a mustard seed can grow and grow and grow.
His tears of compassion keep us watered with security.
He is always with us...
The Master Gardener and the Vine!
Sweet Love Divine!
There is much wisdom in a secret garden!
