Pax Christi: The Connectedness of Every Living Thing

The following information on Global Restoration is from http://paxchristiusa.org 4-15-13

"Our faith calls us to a commitment to work for all of God’s creation. In the journey for peace and justice, our knowledge deepens in an understanding of THE CONNECTEDNESS OF EVERY LIVING THING:  WHAT HAPPENS IN ONE REALM OF LIFE IMPACTS ANOTHER.  

Our food choices impact the use of fossil fuels: do we eat locally or is our food imported across thousands of miles?  Do we eat lower on the food chain or do we have meat with almost every meal?  Do we plant our own gardens using natural fertilizers and insect repellents?"  READ MORE

REFLECTION QUESTION:  What one thing might I incorporate into my lifestyle that would deepen my care for creation?

  1. One thing I will incorporate to deepen my care for creation on this earth is going to be by enjoying the scenery outside. With that said, I will enjoy the outdoors by eating picnics at local parks, exercising outside and having more bonding activities with my family rather than staying inside to cook dinners or going to a local gym in air conditioning. Since God has given us this precious earth, I feel the need to use his creation to the fullest. Beyond that I think you can show your care and respect by not destroying it by polluting it, and keeping it clean.

  4. Agreeing with Kali Lents, I will also incorporate by taking time out to enjoy the scenery outside. I believe that being outside is an outlet to the chaotic world and allows one to connect deeper with earth's creations. Also to incorporate to deepen my care for creation, I do not kill insects, I feel that all life is valuable and should be cherised.
