The first article of the Apostles’ Creed states: “I believe in God, the Father, the Almighty, creator of Heaven and Earth.” Have you ever thought about the implications of this statement? If we really believe that God created the entirety of this world then care for the planet should be a chief concern of all Christians. Unfortunately, the effects of pollution continually harm God’s creation and the long-term impact of our collective negligence is still largely unknown.

Verse for Meditation: Nehemiah 9:6

Action: Today, fast from driving your car. Ride a bike, take the bus, or simply walk to the places you need to go. View this sacrifice as a form of worship and an honoring of God the Father, Creator of Heaven and Earth.
