One earth-system … we’re in it together

Morning: Psalm 119:97-120; Nehemiah 7:73-8:3, 5-18; Rev 18:21-24
Evening: Psalms 81, 82; Joel 2:12-19; Matthew 15:29-39

A local farmer and biologist spoke passionately last week and fed my soul … about growing good, nourishing food in ways that preserve and help regenerate the soil.  Unsurprisingly, this promotes the health of the whole earth. We live within one interdependent earth-system that some call ‘Gaia’; no part is independent of any other.  Realizing our interdependence … teaching about it … acting on this knowledge … these are practical and spiritual steps that earth needs us to take if she is to heal.  They came to Jesus for healing and regeneration; he fed them bread, fish and spiritual food.
