Between the Trees

It's where we're all living: between these trees {And the Lord God made all kinds of trees grow out of the ground - trees that were pleasing to the eye and good for food. In the middle of the garden were the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil (Genesis 2:9)} and this one {On each side of the river stood the tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, yielding its fruit every month. And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations (Revelation 22: 1-2)}.

Along the Way

It's an iconic image of relaxation - a hammock slung between two trees, inviting rest, inspiring closed-eyed contemplation, intimating repose. Every so often along this journey, we round a bend in our straight and narrow path and come upon a hammock, graciously provided for our respite near streams in the desert, slung between pines in the wasteland.
