Genesis 2:15 Voltar para primeiro Jardim with Isabel Zwahlen



Based on a sketch during the 4th YWAM BRAZIL ARTS Conference YWAM Contagem. 

Wonderful teaching by guest speaker Isabel Zwahlen, Who'se teaching on the Garden of Eden and cultivating our own Garden - Spending time with God. 

I have been developing the sketch into colour with some reflections of my own - Isabel's teaching spoke deeply  - Working on the picture I couldnt help but think of all the things the Garden of Eden means. The flag of Brazil is a beautiful flag.... the colours make one think of the hope of paradise - The flowers and flags in the picture - precious symbols of all God intended for us in the Garden of God.    Our hopes and longings for all that is pure, innocent, holy, integrity, beauty, tenderness and truth.   This crazy, confused world wants to obliterate all the memory of these precious truths yet the world so desperetly needs to return to this garden, remembering the paradise which was lost........ I sense God calling Brazil to return to Him. So much ails this great country......no amount of human power or strength can resolve -  it can only ever hope to be restored and healed through coming back to God. Return to the precious values and truths God intended for mankind. Paradise was lost.....but we can return if we go by the way of the empty garden tomb...and believe the incredible message it contains. The Lord Himself awaits us......
