Good Morning Garden

The principal revelation of the Jesus Christ teaching is the omnipresence and availability of god, and the belief that God not only transcends His universe but is everywhere immanent in it—that He indwells in it.

If you really believe in the existence of God you should be happy and cheerful. God has all power, and God is Good; so life must be good too.

Meet the world with a smile. You owe this to God, to your fellows, and above all, to yourself. If you go about with a face like an east wind, what can you possibly expect to attract from the world? We all know people who carry a fixed, frozen, mirthless, almost profession al, smile. Such a smile is just a permanent wave in the face.

Smile, even if it takes a little effort, and keep it up until it becomes spontaneous, as it will. In the graphic language of Hollywood, register joy, and hold it!

For ye shall go out with joy… (Isaiah 55:12).

That which we express (press out) is that which shapes our existence. When we press out our hope, joy, confidence and faith, our world becomes the Garden God created for us. When we press out fear, hate, cynicism and doubt, our world becomes a prison from which we are helpless to escape because we create it around us like the cocoon spun by the caterpillar. Today, let us spin an Eden and press it out so that all around us may experience life in the Garden with us, created by us, through Jesus Christ our Lord.
