My
Heart-Garden
Down in the secret depths of my heart is a wonderful
garden. When I open the gate and walk in, God meets me
there. We converse together of things that can never be
talked about outside this secret place. It is the holy of
holiest It may be amid the bustling throng, the crowded
street, the chattering of thoughtless friends, or in some
solitary place; when I open the gate and walk in, I find
Christ waiting for me. He never disappoints me. His voice
is sweetest music, and before the light of His beaming
face the shadows flee away. The world with its frets and
worries, its fears and anxieties, its sorrows and its
cares has no place in this wonderful garden. Here life
takes on a fuller meaning. I see the things that are
worthless and the things worth while. Here I can see and
hear things that cannot be seen or heard anywhere outside
this secret place. Here the seen things are lost to view
and only the unseen things appear. Here the near things
are far away and the far away things are near. Here I
gather golden grain from the fields of heaven which I am
to carry out and scatter in the pathway of others. When I
come out from this garden, earth is not like it was
before. Things seem changed and I am nearer like my
blessed Lord.
