BLOG'S MISSION & VERSES



THESE ARE SOME OF THE BIBLE VERSES THAT REALLY STRUCK HOME IN MY HEART AS TO WHY I WANTED TO SHARE THIS BLOG


1 Corinthians 10:13
No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it

1 Corinthians 6:19-20
...do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body
1 Corinthians 10:31
So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

Romans 12:2
Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

God gave men and women a privileged place among all creatures and commanded them to exercise stewardship over the earth. We are to intelligently manage the resources God has given us, using all diligent care to preserve and protect them. In addition to our role of caretakers, we are to appreciate the functionality and beauty of the environment. 

In His incredible grace and power, God has placed on this planet everything needed to feed, clothe, and house the billions of people who have lived on it since the garden of Eden. All the resources He has provided for our needs are renewable, and He continues to provide the sun and rain necessary to sustain and replenish those resources. And if this were not enough, He has also decorated the planet in glorious color and scenic beauty to appeal to our aesthetic sense and thrill our souls with wonder! Obviously as Christians, we should be doing what we can to be true stewards of God's creation.
