Trees can play an important part in history, there are two very important ones that have
left their mark through the ages, and with a special promise of one to come!

In the beginning
in Eden’s fair garden
was a tree of good and evil
that was forbidden
They did not listen and partook
of the fruit
of the first tree in the midst of three

With one last look they fled in terror
Why do they fear their Heavenly Father?
But He spoke these words “Do not be afraid
a Savior shall be born in a manger of hay”

His path will be lonely, His friends
will forsake Him
on a tree of reconciliation, weeping
This is the second tree in the midst of three

In a grave He lay sleeping, in three days
rising again, visiting with friends then
ascending to heaven, giving us the
hope of His Second Coming
Eden’s tree will be restored
for all who believe, of its fruit
they shall eat
This is the third tree in the midst of three
Its leaves bringing
healing to the nations
and forever in heaven and earth, there
will be peace!

The tree of good and evil will always remain within the garden of eden; even after it is restored upon the earth made new.
Everyone will have access to it and no one will be stopped 8f they want to eat its fruit.
For the tree of good and evil is a test of ones loyalty and willingness to obey God.
No one will ever choose to disobey by plucking and eating its fruit.
Simply because after experiencing the terrible results and consequences of Adam and Eve’s.
No one will ever consider disobeying God ever again.
