Reflect
How does God exercise authority? Does God exploit us, leaving us broken and used? Or does he mend what is broken and bring forth new life? Just as God is over us, so should we be good stewards over creation.
Pray
Father,
out of your communion of love,
light bursts forth
from darkness,
and life shimmers
in a dazzling array of beauty.
As you care for all your creatures,
give me a heart to love them
as you do.
Let me give honor
to your handiwork,
by giving more
than I receive. Amen.
Act
Think of one small thing you may do to give back to the earth. Maybe plant a tree or clean up trash on the roadside. Find some way to show stewardship of God’s creation.
