I love the beauty of the Earth!
From waterfalls to the mountains, from the coast to the deserts, our earth holds so many magnificent places to enjoy.
When I am outside hiking or exploring I get a sense of wonder and think about the wonders that God has provided for us to enjoy. It is so large and grand, but yet I can touch the trees, feel the wind, and enjoy the fragrance of the flowers. It is so majestic but also so personal.
In Job (in the bible) it says: “But ask now the beasts, and they shall teach thee; and the fowls of the air, and they shall tell thee. Or speak to the earth, and it shall teach thee: and the fishes of the sea shall declare unto thee. Who knoweth not in all these that the hand of the Lord hath wrought this? In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind.
As beneficiaries of the divine Creation, what shall we do? We should care for the earth, be wise stewards over it, and preserve it for future generations. And we are to love and care for one another.”
RUSSELL M. nelson, April 2000
Let’s never take this beautiful world for granted and all work together to preserve it for the benefit of future generations. It truly is amazing!
