A flowing river and a tree,
Eden’s outstanding features are,
Man to supply with food and drink
That he may live fore’er.

If upon Christ in spirit I feed,
Filled with His life I’ll be.

Thus to be satisfied.

And in His image shine.

We would all want to be filled with Christ as our life. But the filling is contingent on our eating and drinking [taking Christ in the word by faith] In Eden we see Gods way to be one with man is by eating and drinking. This was the outstanding feature of the garden. Now we have the Spirit as a river flowing into us and out of us. As we take Christ as food, believing in the Word, we are nourished and strengthened to live by this tree and river. God, Christ is the source of this life. So now the outstanding feature of or whole Christian life and relationship with God is in our spirit taking in His Spirit. This is the way to experience Him and be filled with Him. We must constantly be filled to express Him and make His glory known.

Hallelujah, the Triune God flows out in Christ as the Spirit into us to quench our thirst, fill our inner being, and flow out of us into many others!

He is our everlasting, Eternal supply, all things rest in Him..
He sustains us through our cross bearing trials of this life in order to fully conform and perfect us. This Merciful One clears the way for overcoming saints to be one with Him for eternity. He provides for us in every conceivable way!

How wonderful the Bible begins with a flowing river and a tree and it ends with a flowing river and a tree
I appreciate that the Lord is portrayed as a fruit tree as a tree that is good for food. To me the shows Gods intention and desire to enter into man for his enjoyment, satisfaction and supply.

If upon Christ in spirit I feed, filled with His life I'll be! He is the real food, the real supply, praise the Lord!
