the world we live



what we do has consequences

we can see this everywhere
look at the devastation of a Rainforest,
then look at the erosion and destruction this causes,
this environment is changed forever...
millions of species disappear that will never return,
cures for cancer could have been wiped out in this kind of stupidity,
all for profit....
plus, it's ugly.
When God told Adam and Eve to subdue the earth,
do you think He had this kind of raping of the land in mind?
it doesn't jibe with our Creative Creator
people who seek God should be leading..
leading the charge in caring for this planet,
leading the charge for the homeless,
leading the charge for the forgotten,
fighting for equity for all humans
immigrants, every race, man, woman and child,
for the unborn,
leading the charge in being unified for our Lord,
leading the charge in art, music, literature, and creativity,
in all of these things we could be more than conquerors..
we don't have to hug trees to want to keep them around,( though it wouldn't hurt)
we don't worship nature,
but we show God our worship for Him is real by how we treat the gifts He gives,
especially this world we live..
especially one another..
