They found Jesus in a garden.
Gardens, and the life and abundance that they bring, have
long been seen in the Bible as the place where heaven touches earth.
God walks and talks with Adam and Eve in the garden.
And, tonight we hear that the soldiers came to arrest
Jesus in a garden.
They did not realize that the garden is where God meets
us, to walk and talk with us.
They did not realize that when Jesus says, “I am,” he is
telling them that God is right there, with them.
God is right here, with you, as Jesus comes to you in
this garden place, with flowers, and life and the love of Jesus, Emmanuel, God
with us.
