"Let every individual and institution now think and act as a responsible trustee of Earth, seeking choices in ecology, economics and ethics that will provide a sustainable future, eliminate pollution, poverty and violence, awaken the wonder of life and foster peaceful progress in the human adventure."
- John McConnell, founder of International Earth Day
RIGHT NOW, and then again tomorrow and then again the next day and on it goes day after day,
1/2 OF THE WORLD lives on LESS THAN 2 DOLLARS each day.
Psalm 27:4
One thing I ask of the LORD, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple.
Do all you can and don't worry about the odds against you. Wield the miracle of life's energy, never worrying whether we fail, concerned only that whether we fail or succeed we do so with all our might. That's all we need to know to feel certain that all our force of diligent effort is worth our while on Earth.
Carl Safina, Voyage of the Turtle
I am just the channel he uses to do his work.............
I have heard it over and over in church for many years...but this morning I actually got it!!!!
I, like most people, most parents, most single parents, fret over money, paying bills, providing care and enjoyment to my children and fur babies..........
and I went to church this morning with it on my mind..........,
but then in the pastor's prayer he said "it is HIS"...and I received it in a very different way than I have ever before... A HUGE weight lifted from my shoulders, I cried and knew, I mean really knew, he is on the throne, he always has and he always will take care of me and my family...I just need to let go and lay it at his feet...........
Praise you Lord, for being so good to stubborn me!!!
