In two gardens, one Adam failed; the other Adam, prevailed. Source for Poem: 1Corinthians15:44-49. (NIV)

The Gardens Two gardens, equal in God's sight, vital to His plan Of life, here, and hereafter for man. Pleasing to the eye, like the fruit The first Adam chose to eat Against his Father's will. Down, man spiraled from that forbidden treat! Look! See the second Adam, bowed in Gethsemane, Praying to the Father for the world, for you, for me. In the beauty of Eden, the first Adam failed, But oh! in the Garden of Gethsemane, Jesus Christ:the second,the last Adam, prevailed! This work is copyrighted material- 2015

Really loved the message in this one and how you put it together! Enjoyed how you brought out the comparison of the two gardens, but ended your poem on a super triumphant and uplifting note! Thanks for sharing this one Barbara!!

Beautifully written. Gethsemane, the beginning of the Age of Grace with the sacrifice of a son.

Thanks,
