A Bible Garden

God created the plants and trees that grow food so we're going to share some pictures with you of a 'bible garden'. 

It's a garden that has trees that are mentioned in the bible and of course God made many, many more kinds, these are just a few.  

Gardens like this take a lot of space so you need a lot of land.  What did God call the dry land?  Earth! 

This is an olive tree above and you can see the
​olives growing below.

Maybe you have eaten olives?

As you grow and learn the bible, you will see that olives were very important food.  Olives can be eaten and the oil from them is very healthy.

Above are grape vines and below, if you look closely, you can see the grapes growing.

You can eat grapes once they are ready to be picked.  There are several different kinds and colors of grapes, here are some:

As we said before, God created many more kinds of trees and plants, these are just a few.  These pictures were sent to us from a woman in Australia who loves God.  She gets to help take care of these trees and eat of the food they produce.

What other trees can you think of?

The bible says that we are to give God thanks in everything.

In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
