Reflection

“There’s nothing wrong with having a tree as a friend.” –Bob Ross

Prayer

Creator God,

Let a childlike spirit be revived within us, that we may rediscover the mystery and wonder of your creation. Let the trees and rocks and streams and mountains around us speak to us again, about the delight that you take in life. Abundant life. May we feel playful again and even in love with the world you have made for us. Inspire us thereby to take better care of what we love. As those who are called to steward your great gift of creation, we pray. Amen.

Call to Action

Go outside for a few minutes today and imagine a new way that I can authentically befriend the natural world.
