Care for Creation

The nature we see was created by God above,
Not by some explosion void of a Creator's love.
We are made for the purpose of His praise,
 This is our praise for the rest of our days.


The beauty of the earth bears the mark of God,
And every detail of His Creation bring Him laude.
"God is not dead, nor doth He sleep," *
But He doth His Creation safely keep.


Worship not the creation and what it has to offer,
But the Creator and all in His power did proffer.
I am created by God and His image I do bear,
And I carry the message of His salvation with care.

* I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, 1867
