Caring for the Earth
"The earth is the Lord's, and everything in it."
— Psalm 24:1
Creator of the Earth,
This planet that carries us, that nourishes us, that offers us its beauty, is an extraordinary gift. A blue jewel in space, our common home.
Thank You for the Earth. For its complex ecosystems, its fascinating biodiversity, its breathtaking landscapes. Thank You for the air we breathe, the water we drink, the food it produces.
Help us take care of it. To stop exploiting it without measure, to protect what is threatened, to live more responsibly. This Earth is not ours; it is entrusted to us. May we be good stewards of it.
Amen.
