Caring For Creation

My church hosted a seminar on the environment and faith; the two should be closely linked. Being a good steward of the gifts of mother Earth is the right thing to do.

It requires using our hearts, minds, and spirit to do something for this creation of nature we have been given. It’s essential to do things such as recycling, conserving energy (yes I am not always good at that), and extending the life of the things I use to make life easier.

As a believer, I am glad to do these things because it’s a way of showing how much I want this planet to be there for future generations. Love your neighbor as yourself extends to being concerned for the environment. Caring for creation is a statement of faith.

Earth Day 2021, April 22nd – #EarthDay

Earth Day was founded in 1970 as a day of education about environmental issues, and Earth Day 2021 will occur on Thursday, April 22—the holiday’s 51st anniversary. The holiday is now a global celebration that’s sometimes extended into Earth Week, a full seven days of events focused on green living.

It’s important to take care of where we live. Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Replenish and Restore all the things. When you take care of our planet you take care of others and yourself. It’s being a good neighbor. As we continue to deal with the pandemic lets not lose sight of having a planet that will sustain us in all situations.

Always think global but act local.

Quote Of The Day

In a very real sense, we are all aliens on a strange planet. We spend most of our lives reaching out and trying to communicate. If during our whole lifetime, we could reach out and really communicate with just two people, we are indeed very fortunate..

Gene Roddenberry, creator of TV’s “Star Trek”

Happy Earth Day 2020

Earth Day is celebrated around the world on April 22 every year to demonstrate support for environmental protection. First celebrated in 1970, it now includes events coordinated globally by the Earth Day Network.

It’s always important to take care of creation and all the things that make it our home planet. Our environment is what keeps us alive. Everyone can do their part to make Earth a much better place to live.
