Last time we were together we discussed what we were created for and the purposes God intended for us as men in Genesis 2:15, “The Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to work it and keep it.”

These are the Marching Orders we’ve been given and called to fulfill before God in this world. It is honestly a very simple calling even though it is not an easy one to accomplish: We are to be continually devoting ourselves to working, building, keeping and protecting everything placed into our charge and under our care.

So, what exactly does God mean when He says to work and to keep?
