Life in this world is short. In the Bible it is described as a vapor in the wind - very brief compared to an eternity in heaven. We have the assurance that we are not permanent citizens of this world with all its troubles. Can we afford to be indifferent to the problems of this earthly existence?

A Christian's View of the Environment

What do you think?

Dear Lynne -

What a fantastic article! I think it is so true that if we have respect for the beauty of the world around it, we should treasure it and care for it as best as we can.

Every morning when I go outside to do yoga I give thanks for the natural beauty that surrounds me, and it reinvigorates me to do all I can to keep it safe.

Thank you, Lisa. So often we forget to acknowledge and be greatful for what God has provided.
