it's not smog, God just has dirty hands

Sunday January 24th, Psalm 19: The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. The story of creation is a story of the beginning of relationship. We were created from the dust of the ground, and in relationship to the Creation from which we were formed. We were created in the likeness of God with the breath of life, the Spirit within us and as such we are created in and for a relationship with the Creator. Eve, the mother of all was created from the earth man Adam, from there grew community and as such we are related one to another in Community. We live, breath, and find our being in this three-way relationship, with Creation, with Community and with the Creator. As the heavens, part of God’s creation, declare the glory of God, so too, we to are called to declare the glory of God, it is what gives live meaning by connecting to its original intent. It also calls into question how we treat those same heavens with which we are to join in glorifying our Creator. As we continue to play games trying to deny both the problems and solutions to global warming, we are sinning against not only Creation, but also Community and Creator. Now that you have been created in a loving relationship, how are you going to show the manifestation of that relationship back to the creation?
