This world is changing, our climate is warming, the balance of our living world is degrading and few of us are paying attention
It appears, that the ways in which our climate is changing does not easily set off alarms in us. Perhaps it is happening at such an incremental rate that it defies our deep perception
We notice things are different, but we endure or adjust, and then move on. This has left us profoundly vulnerable to this danger
Wake yourself, arouse your mind and sharpen your perception, become an observer and listener of nature. This is more important than we realize, a problem which will be difficult to recover from
Never forget that this planet was made by our God, created for life and for wonder. It is a miracle of His work
Do you think God applauds its destruction?
Many say they don’t see the climate changing. Look more intently, study the data determined by the experts.
Remember the harm you have seen across the lands nearby. Recall the gigantic fires, the powerful storms, the unusual freezes and unrelenting heat; the devastating droughts, and all of the collective damage done so far
Sense the enormity of environmental stress that covers most of the world now. It is all there for you to see, just open your eyes and understand
Some say it is a hoax or scheme to defraud us. But, why are so many brilliant people telling us there is now no doubt?
Climate change is happening. It is real, and our own actions are to blame. The real hoax may lie in the disinformation and lies spread abroad, sowed by those who can gain by creating confusion and distrust in the truth
Our God is a God of justice and righteousness, He considers those who act justly, and those who aspire towards what is good, but He is against anyone who acts selfishly and propagates lies
How do you think He feels about those who are damaging this precious Earth?
Some say it is our right to subdue this World that God gave us to live in. But we have gone far past overcoming the challenges of living on this planet
Never has there been so much destruction wrought upon our land, seas, and air; harm that has affected all life, especially our poor and our defenseless, the ones God calls precious in His eyes
Oh Lord, I pray for our collective climate awareness, that we might sharpen our focus upon this threat. Please help us grow closer and more united as we seek to find good solutions
We elevate you, the Lord of the heavens and of this Earth, so that we might regard You in all our ways, that justice may be served, and the health of our world, upheld
May we always acknowledge You, as we work to restore the bountiful abundance of this world, so that it may be well for us, and for all who live here, and so that You may be forever praised for your all Your awesome works. 3/5/2021
