In The Garden..A Place For His Heart... Poem by Sharon Smith

A Heart turned from You Sweet Lord..Not knowing what she had done..
and there You cried..alone in the garden..as she refused the tormented Son
Your Soul so torn..Your human Heart cried..in the swirling depths of Your flood
So alone and broken..battles in Your Head..fell through Your Body as drops of Blood
'Take this from Me..if this be Your Will'..a Cry rang through the heavens above
Then alone in the garden..forsaken, found strength..to show the depth of His Greatest Love
She turned unrequitably..broke a Heart so True..for a moment in Time..His bride lost.
Another way..this be the Will of His Father? ..but no! ..He willingly paid the cost!






14 'Therefore I am now going to allure her;
I will lead her into the wilderness
and speak tenderly to her.
15 There I will give her back her vineyards,16 'In that day, ' declares the LORD,
'you will call me ‘my husband';
you will no longer call me ‘my master.[c]'
19 I will betroth you to me forever;
I will betroth you in[d] righteousness and justice,
in[e] love and compassion.
20 I will betroth you in[f] faithfulness,
and you will acknowledge the LORD.21 'In that day I will respond, '
declares the LORD—
'I will respond to the skies,
and they will respond to the earth;
23 I will plant her for myself in the land;
I will show my love to the one I called ‘Not my loved one.[h]'
I will say to those called ‘Not my people, ' ‘You are my people';
and they will say, ‘You are my God.''
