This is my Father's world

This morning, while driving to preach, I saw a motel advertisement stating, "Stay Green -- Stay Gaia". The implication is that Gaia and green go together. That is not the truth. As Christians we have been given stewardship of the world. If anyone is green it ought to be Christians.

I remember driving my father's car. You always had to make sure it didn't get dinged or scratched and you had to bring it home clean.

Our world, is really, our Father's world. He created it, is going to remake it, and in between, he has left it in the hands of the human race to take care of it. We are not given license to pillage and pollute. But rather are given permission to live and prosper in it.

It is time that Christians take the initiative to say, Go Green and Go Godly!
