The Birth Of Love
Long, long ago, in the Garden Of Eden.
God created man, with a good reason.
In His own image, God created him.
He worshiped God as his creator, then.
Then man asked “Why am I alone?”
“I need someone to call my own.”
So, God created woman as his helpmate.
It was perfect,—– not a mistake.
This is how love came to be.
Love between man & woman, see.
It was perfect at the very start.
Till Satan came along & tore it apart.
Through the ages, since that time.
Love hasn’t always been real kind.
But, when the real thing comes along.
You’re back in the garden, where you belong.
Things become perfect again.
The real love grows through thick and thin.
Satan may try to mess things up.
But, if both of you are tough.
Also, if you are wise in your ways.
Neither will give Satan any sway.
Your love will prevail against all odds.
Proving that man is worth this gift of God.
This gift of love, given with all its blessings.
That leads back to God. It’s truly refreshing.
So, if you find a ‘helpmate’ to love.
Treat her as a gift from above.
No greater gift was ever given.
Till He gave His son, & we were forgiven.
