God Planted a Garden

Before any known thing was evident God existed for all time never began He rested on the seventh day made it holy the Lord had created Adam the first man But God created a garden in Eden in a moment He planted it in the east Adam came there to work on it this God's plan for Adam at very least At first, there was nothing at all there until God displayed His creative hand then there were trees of every kind oak and fir and ash all to stand Then water appeared to water all there it divided into four rivers no less which flowed into its tributaries indeed God watered Eden sharing its real dress Rivers aplenty began with Pishon flowing around Havilah full of gold next came Gihon covered all of Cush then was Tigris and Euphrates this is told Now disaster struck this godly garden God had made woman from Adam and grown these two did what God said no to and sinned so Jesus later took this sin to sure atone
