There is a longing in every human heart that we sense but often cannot name. I believe it is the longing to return home to Eden, to friendship and communion with God. In my prayer, I began asking the Holy Spirit to help me name this ache and envision Eden. This episode is the fruit of my prayer and meditation on the Prologue of the Song of Songs.
