I find that I am fixated on Genesis 2 and the fact God did all those things--choosing specific plants and food for their beauty and flavor for mankind--out of love. He gave the very best He had because He loved them, and He gave the option not to choose Him.
He put all that great stuff in the garden...and then He put a tree that gave them the ability to reject it all.
Was the very best love, the love that gives knowing someone has the option to leave?
Is the deepest love the one that loves greatly knowing the other may choose not to love at all?
Is that perfect love? If Eden was perfect, and that is the love He gave, it has to be.
