"And certain plants shall not grow in Marilyn's garden until she hath the brains and the green thumbs to care for them."
Unfortunately, no verse like this exists in the Bible. But Gen. 2:5 does say, "And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon
the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground."
My garden will never look like Eden. Stuff is going to grow out there whether I cultivate it or not-- weeds, plants from the previous tenant,
blackberry bushes. At least there is a person (me) who can go out and shove dirt around. But in God's garden, Adam and Eve weren't yet on the
scene. Isn't that just like God to plan that certain plants needing cultivating wouldn't grow until there was a gardener?
If God thought enough of that detail to put it in His Word, can He tend to things in our lives as well? Could He even overrule... The Daytimer?
