Earth’s wonders and woes


“I will lift up my eyes to the mountains—From whence cometh my help?
 My help cometh from the Lord, Who made heaven and earth.” - Psalm 121

EARTH Day (today) is a special time to ponder the wonders - and ways of stopping the plunder and rampant pollution - of the Planet of the Humans. As in all things, this is better done if we pray to enable us to see it in a Godly light. God made the earth and the heavens in all their seemingly impossible glory. He is also the source of our help in all things seemingly impossible to resolve; He is the Creator who specializes in the impossible. So let us pray for His help in changing our ways that cause these earthly woes – the pollution of the air we breathe, of the rivers that were made to water our lives, and the plasticizing the oceans that surround us. Greed and being “Green” are environmental opposites, so the choices are clear. But strive to let the restoration of His creation begin in each of our hearts, hands and homes.
