Earth Week


Happy Earth Week!  Earth Day is this Wednesday.  So to celebrate I'll be posting a few photos or tips from my little world o' Cindar.  Over the past year and a half I have tried to find ways to not be as wasteful and help the earth.  Being green or eco-friendly isn't some left-wing hippie-dippy mumbo-jumbo.  It can be a Christian thing to do, too.  Being a creative person, I've been seeing the earth in a different light.  God being the ultimate artist and creator I feel that it's important to respect his creation.  How would I feel if someone came up to one of my paintings and totally trashed it?!

I may not be the best eco-friendly example but every little thing counts.

God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. God blessed them; and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over every living thing that moves on the earth."  Then God said, "Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is on the surface of all the earth, and every tree which has fruit yielding seed; it shall be food for you; and to every beast of the earth and to every bird of the sky and to every thing that moves on the earth which has life, I have given every green plant for food"; and it was so.  God saw all that He had made, and behold, it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day.

-Genesis 1:27-31
